O Triclusters Revisited: Classical MD and Quantum Cluster Results for Glasses of Composition (Al2O3)2(SiO2).
2005
The (17)O NMR spectrum of CaAl(2)Si(2)O(8) glass shows two types of O sites that are not present in the crystalline material. One of these, with (17)O NMR parameters C(Q) = 2.3 MHz and delta = +20 ppm, has been assigned to a "tricluster" O, a local geometry in which the O is coordinated to three tetrahedrally coordinated atoms, either Al or Si. For crystalline CaAl(4)O(7), a tricluster site (with three Al linkages to O, i.e., OAl(3)) has been characterized experimentally, with a C(Q) of 2.5 MHz and a delta of about +40 ppm. Thus, a C(Q) value of 2.5 MHz or less seems to be a characteristic of such sites, although they may show a range of delta values. However, several different quantum chem…

Al-27 and Si-29 Solid-State NMR Characterization of Calcium-Aluminosilicate-Hydrate
2012
International audience; Calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) is the main constituent of hydrated cement paste and determines its cohesive properties. Because of the environmental impact of cement industry, it is more and more common to replace a part of the clinker in cement by secondary cementitious materials (SCMs). These SCMs are generally alumina-rich and as a consequence some aluminum is incorporated into the C-S-H. This may have consequences on the cohesion and durability of the material, and it is thus of importance to know the amount and the location of Al in C-S-H and what the parameters are that control these features. The present paper reports the Si-29 and Al-27 MAS NMR analyses of …
