Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of limestone on the hydration of Portland cements
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the presence of limestone on the hydration of Portland cement was investigated, and it was shown that the stabilisation of monocarbonate in the absence of limestone indirectly stabilised ettringite, leading to a corresponding increase of the total volume of the hydrate phase and a decrease of porosity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of chloride on the mineralogy of hydrated portland cement systems
TL;DR: In this article, the role of chloride in Portland cement formation and its relevance to corrosion of embedded steel are discussed in terms of calculated aqueous [Cl]/[OH-] molar ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of limestone and anhydrite on the hydration of Portland cements
TL;DR: The addition of CaCO 3 and CaSO 4 to Portland cement clinker influences the hydration and the strength development as mentioned in this paper, leading to a higher early compressive strength and a lower late compressive power.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of the Rietveld method to the analysis of anhydrous cement
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of different parameters involved in the Rietveld method and review the most recent quantitative X-ray powder diffraction studies on anhydrous cement are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydration of Portland cement with additions of calcium sulfoaluminates
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of mineral additions based on calcium aluminates on the hydration mechanism of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) was investigated using isothermal calorimetry, thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, solid state nuclear magnetic resonance and pore solution analysis.
