Effects of sodium nitrate and OPC-GGBS concrete mix composition on phase transition of pore water at subzero temperatures

TL;DR: In this paper , the formation of ice was examined for various pastes and concretes of OPC-GGBS based, while exposed to a constant temperature of −15 °C. The ice formation and its effects on the binder matrix microstructure was studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) and Scanning Electron Microscopy- Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (SEM-EDS).

Sea Sand Concrete Chloride Ion Diffusion and Combination of Curing

TL;DR: In this article, the 28 days of age in sea sand Mohr method was used to evaluate the sea sand for ordinary concrete and fly ash concrete microstructure and mineral composition, and determined the different types of water-soluble chloride ion concentration to the chloride ion binding characteristics in the study of sea sand in concrete.

Durability of eco-efficient binary cement mortars based on ichu ash: Effect on carbonation and chloride resistance

TL;DR: In this article , the performance of mortars containing ichu ash as a potential environmentally sound alternative to traditional pozzolans (at 6% and 10% replacement levels) under CO 2 and chloride ion rich environments, in order to evaluate the capacity of this material to produce more sustainable and durable blended cements.

The Role of Calcium Carbonate in Cement Hydration

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown by experiment and calculation that much, if not all, of this calcite is reactive and affects the distribution of lime, alumina and sulfate and thereby alters the mineralogy of hydrated cement pastes.
