The effect of foreign ions on the reactivity of the CaO–SiO2–Al2O3–Fe2O3 system: Part II: Cations

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of foreign cations on the reactivity of the CaO-SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 -Fe 2 O3 system was evaluated on the basis of the free lime content in samples sintered at 1200 and 1450 °C.

The development of microstructure during the hydration of Portland cement.

Abstract: The hydration of commercial Portland cements and of synthetic Portland cement phases has been investigated, by electron optical methods and calorimetry. Examination of fracture surfaces in the scanning electron microscope (SEM), of ion-thinned sections from bulk pastes by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and by scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), of thin sections extracted from undried paste in the environmental cell of a high voltage (1Mev) electron microscope (HVEM) and of back scattered electron images from polished sections in the SEM have been combined to give a detailed picture of the development of morphology during cement hydration. The use of this combination of methods takes into account the effect of drying on microstructure and allows discussion of unrepresentative images produced by some methods. The possible mechanisms by which the various phases hydrate and the way in which these are altered or modified in Portland cement itself are discussed. The use of back scattered electron images of polished surfaces is presented as a method of quantifying the microstructure of a cement, and the potential of this technique for relating the microstructure to the mechanical properties and durability of cement is discussed.

Numerical Data for Some Commonly Used Solid State Reaction Equations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give numerical tables of F(α) in relation to α, and to (t/t0.5) where t 0.5 is the time for 50% reaction and A is a calculable constant depending on the form of F (α).

The effect of stabilizing agents on the hydration rate of β-C2S

TL;DR: In this paper, a model involving the charge/radius ratio of the metal ion was developed to explain altered hydration rates, which proved useful in describing the crystal-chemical stabilization of β-C 2 S.

Chemische Untersuchungen von Silicaten. XVI. Über die ausschlaggebende Bedeutung kleiner Mengen von Alkali bei der β → γ‐Umwandlung des Ca2SiO4

TL;DR: In this paper, die im allgemeinen auftretende Hemmung der Umwandlung der bei Zimmertemperatur metastabilen β-modifikation des Ca2SiO4 in die stabile β-Modifikations, die, falls sie stattfindet, unter „Zerrieseln” erfolgt, auf der Anwesenheit sehr kleiner Mengen von Alkali beruht.
