Etude de l'influence de l'hydratation des laitiers sur les propriétés de transfert gazeux dans les matériaux cimentaires
2015
Cements with high slag content are currently studied as possible candidate for nuclear waste containment materials. In this context it is important to know their microstructure and the transport properties (permeability and diffusion) of the gases that are formed by the radiolysis of the water present in this material. According to literature, these properties are strongly impacted by the addition of blast furnace slag. The aim of this work is to correlate the hydration processes of slag blended cements with their transport properties. In the first part of this work, the hydration of the slag blended cements, for which only few results have been reported to date, has been studied. Silicon-2…
Influence of the slag content on the hydration of blended cement
2015
International audience; Slag is increasingly used for replacing a part of clinker. The addition of slag modifies the hydration process and so the physico-chemical properties (such as porosity, transport properties) of cementitious materials. Indeed the evolution of the physico-chemical properties are determined by the hydration kinetics of the anhydrous phases and the composition of the hydrated phases. The hydration process of slag blended cement is still under investigation due to the complex interactions between clinker and slag. The aim of this work is to link the evolution of slag blended cement properties (such as bound water, chemical shrinkage, mineralogy, porosity) to the hydration…
