Reaction kinetics of FEBEX bentonite in hyperalkaline conditions resembling the cement–bentonite interface
Laura M. Sanchez,Jaime Cuevas,Susana Ramírez,David Riuiz De León,Raúl Fernández,Raquel Vigil de la Villa,Santiago Leguey +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental alteration study has been conducted in order to determine the kinetics of alteration of a montmorillonitic bentonite under hyperalkaline conditions (NaOH 0.5 to 0.1 M) in the presence of portlandite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactivity of the cement-bentonite interface with alkaline solutions using transport cells
TL;DR: In this article, a column made of compacted bentonite from La Serrata (Almeria, Spain) was held in contact with an ordinary Portland cement (OPC) mortar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alteration of compacted bentonite by diffusion of highly alkaline solutions
Raúl Fernández,Raúl Fernández,Urs Mäder,Manuel Rodriguez,Raquel Vigil de la Villa,Jaime Cuevas +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the reaction of synthetic alkaline solutions interacting by diffusion with a Mg-saturated compacted FEBEX-bentonite column of 2.1 cm thickness was investigated through closed-system experiments at 60 °C over 6 and 12 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Formation of C-A-S-H phases from the interaction between concrete or cement and bentonite
TL;DR: In this paper, three hydrothermal laboratory experiments of different scalable complexity were performed to improve our knowledge of the formation of calcium aluminate silicate hydrates (C-A-S-H) at the interface between the two materials: concrete-bentonite transport columns, lime mortar-bentonite transport columns and a portlandite batch experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mineralogical and chemical evolution of hydrated phases in the pozzolanic reaction of calcined paper sludge
Raúl Fernández,Raúl Fernández,Belén Nebreda,Raquel Vigil de la Villa,Rosario García,Moisés Frías +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the pozzolanic reaction of metakaolin in Ca(OH) 2 -saturated solution at 40°C is reported as a function of time, up to 1 year.
