Advances in alternative cementitious binders

TL;DR: In this paper, four promising alternative binders available as alternatives to Portland cement are discussed, namely calcium aluminate cement, calcium sulfoaluminate cements, alkali-activated binders, and supersulfated cements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of slag chemistry on the hydration of alkali-activated blast-furnace slag — Part I: Effect of MgO

TL;DR: In this article, the microstructure of three AASs with MgO contents between 8 and 13.5% were investigated and the formation of C(−−A)−S−H and a hydrotalcite-like phase was observed in all samples by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of activator type on hydration kinetics, hydrate assemblage and microstructural development of alkali activated blast-furnace slags

TL;DR: In this article, the hydration of two slags with different Al 2 O 3 contents activated with sodium hydroxide and hydrous sodium metasilicate (commonly named water glass) was studied using a multi-method approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermodynamic modelling of the hydration of Portland cement

TL;DR: In this paper, a thermodynamic model is developed and applied to calculate the composition of the pore solution and the hydrate assemblage during the hydration of an OPC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydration of calcium sulfoaluminate cements — Experimental findings and thermodynamic modelling

TL;DR: In this article, the hydration of two CSA cements has been investigated experimentally and by thermodynamic modelling between 1h and 28 days at w/c ratios of 0.72 and 0.80, respectively.
