Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium Silicate Hydrate from Dry to Saturated State: Structure, Dynamics and Mechanical Properties
TL;DR: In this paper, the structural water molecules are distributed in the interlayer region and determine the mechanical performance of C-S-H gel, which can greatly weaken the stiffness and cohesive force by replacing the ionic-covalent bond with unstable H-bond connections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and characterization of expanded perlite/paraffin composite as form-stable phase change material
TL;DR: In this article, a form-stable expanded perlite/paraffin (EP/PA) composite was prepared by absorbing paraffin into porous networks of expandable perlite, which showed good thermal energy storage property, thermal stability and thermal reliability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of calcium silicate hydrate (C–S–H) at nano-scale: A molecular dynamics study
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical properties of C-S-H were investigated at the molecular level (∼5nm) using uniaxial tension testing in the x, y, z directions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of foaming agent type on the workability, drying shrinkage, frost resistance and pore distribution of foamed concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the foaming agent type on the properties of foamed concrete, synthetic surfactants (SS), plant surfactant (PS), and animal glue/blood-based foaming agents (AS) were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Uniaxial tension study of calcium silicate hydrate (C–S–H): structure, dynamics and mechanical properties
TL;DR: In this article, a simulation of the uniaxial tension test on C-S-H model along x, y and z direction was carried out to obtain the cohesive force in C−S−H gel.
