The crucial effect of early-stage gelation on the mechanical properties of cement hydrates
Gelation and densification of calcium-silicate-hydrate take place during cement hydration. Both processes are crucial for the development of cement strength, and for the long-term evolution of concrete structures. However, the physicochemical environment evolves during cement formation, making it difficult to disentangle what factors are crucial for the mechanical properties. Here we use Monte ...
متن کاملMesoscale texture of cement hydrates.
Strength and other mechanical properties of cement and concrete rely upon the formation of calcium-silicate-hydrates (C-S-H) during cement hydration. Controlling structure and properties of the C-S-H phase is a challenge, due to the complexity of this hydration product and of the mechanisms that drive its precipitation from the ionic solution upon dissolution of cement grains in water. Departin...
متن کاملCombinatorial molecular optimization of cement hydrates
Despite its ubiquitous presence in the built environment, concrete's molecular-level properties are only recently being explored using experimental and simulation studies. Increasing societal concerns about concrete's environmental footprint have provided strong motivation to develop new concrete with greater specific stiffness or strength (for structures with less material). Herein, a combinat...
متن کاملA realistic molecular model of cement hydrates.
Despite decades of studies of calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H), the structurally complex binder phase of concrete, the interplay between chemical composition and density remains essentially unexplored. Together these characteristics of C-S-H define and modulate the physical and mechanical properties of this "liquid stone" gel phase. With the recent determination of the calcium/silicon (C/S = 1....
متن کاملHeavy Metal Desorption From Cement Hydrates Caused by Chloride Solutions
After the demolition of concrete structures, it is expected to recycle the whole of the demolished concrete. As of now, however, it is difficult to recycle the fine powders generated in the processes of demolition of concrete and manufacture of recycled aggregate because these powders may contain heavy metals exceeding the soil environmental standard, and such powders are disposed finally. It i...
