Investigations on The Micro-Structure of Hardened Cement Pastes
1988
Abstract Creep is a mechanical property, that has to be taken into account in the design of concrete constructions. Earlier studies showed that creep of concrete, among other things, depends on the relative humidity of the environment and on the type of cement used. The origin of creep lies in the hydrated cement paste, which is present between the aggregates. This paper, based on a thesis of H.H. Willems (ref. 1) deals with the relation between the creep behaviour and the microstructure of hardened Portland (PC) and Portland-blastfurnace cement (PBC) pastes. At several relative humidities shrinkage and creep experiments have been performed with thin-walled hollow cylindrical specimens. Nex…
In vitro experimental study of bonding between aluminium oxide ceramics and resin cements
2010
To evaluate bond strengths of different resin cements to two aluminum oxide-based ceramics. Methods: One hundred ten ceramic cylinders were produced and given four different surface treatments. Resin cement cylinders were then bonded to the ceramic cylinders using different resin cements and the bond strength was determined by shear testing to the breaking point. We were thus able to obtain results for the different combinations of porcelain, surface treatments and cements. All data was analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test for more than two independent samples and the Bonferroni correction applied (a=0.01). An optical microscopy study was carried out to analyze the type of failure, and an…
Bond strength of lithium disilicate after cleaning methods of the remaining hydrofluoric acid
2020
Background Complex implant treatments have steadily increased within implant prosthodontics. Based on the lower implant mobility, implant impressions need high accuracy in the model transfer to receive a high passive fit within the final prosthodontic restoration. To analyze the accurate 3-dimensional (3D) inter-implant-positions, a reference point is indispensable. However, there is no reference in the patients mouth, so the aim of the present study was to develop a new method based on a custom-made-measuring-aid (CMA) to assess the inter implant dimensions (InID) in patients. Material and Methods Initially an implant master model (IMM/patient equivalent) was digitized by computed tomograp…
The structure of pumice: An XPS and27Al MAS NMR study
1992
In order to investigate the surface structure of pumice, an amorphous aluminosilicate, samples of pumice and of standards of silica and alumina have been studied by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The effect of a mild acid leaching was also considered. The analysis of the Si 2p, Al 2p and O 1s photoelectron peaks and the Si KLL and O KLL Auger peaks indicated that pumice is formed by tetrahedral silica with some units being replaced by aluminate, AlO2−. The acid treatment decreases the alkali and the aluminate ions. X-ray photoelectron spectra of the valence band of pumices and of standards of Al2O3 and SiO2 agree with the core-level results. To support the conclusions from the XPS …
Synthesis of micro-mesoporous aluminosilicates on the basis of ZSM-5 zeolite using dual-functional templates at presence of micellar and molecular te…
2017
Abstract Micro-mesoporous aluminosilicates consisting of agglomerates of the ZSM-5 nanoparticles were obtained using dual-functional templates [C6H13–N+(CH3)2–C6H12–N+(CH3)2–C6H13](Br−)2 (C6–6–6Br2), [C8H17–N+(CH3)2–C6H12–N+(CH3)2–C8H17](Br−)2 (C8–6–8Br2). Aluminosilicates with randomly oriented flake-like particles built from ZSM-5 layers were obtained using [C16H33–N+(CH3)2–C6H12–N+(CH3)2–C6H13](Br−)2 (C16–6–6Br2). Use of С8–6–8Br2 and additive of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide CTAB (CTAB concentration is lower than the first critical micelle concentration, CMC1) leads to an increase of the total specific surface area, mesopore surface area and the mesopore size uniformity in the product,…
Rate-limiting reaction of C 3 S hydration - A reply to the discussion “A new view on the kinetics of tricalcium silicate hydration” by E. Gartner
2018
Abstract In the case of coupled solids-solution reactions, any mean accelerating or decelerating one of the reaction, will also change the other reaction(s) in the same way, through the coupling mediated by the solution. The observation of any kinetic change by one of these means should not lead to too rapid conclusion on the limitation of kinetics and it must be done with great caution. Contrary to what Gartner mentioned, the acceleration of C3S hydration by the addition of calcium silicate hydrate seeds, is not a trivial evidence suggesting that hydration kinetics “has to be” limited by the C-S-H precipitation and that the C3S dissolution can be neglected. In our paper, efforts have been …
Interactions between chemical evolution (hydration) and physical evolution (setting) in the case of tricalcium silicate
1994
This paper describes recent experimental results concerning investigation of the parameters which determine, on the one hand, the kinetics of hydration of tricalcium silicate and the thermodynamic, morphological and structural characteristics of C-S-H and, on the other hand, the evolution of the particle interactions at the origin of setting. It is shown that, in both cases, lime concentration in solution is the most important parameter. As a consequence, the chemical evolution of the system, which controls the lime concentration in solution, determines the nature of particle interactions and the physical evolution of the suspension or paste. In return, the contacts, between particles, resu…
Aqueous Solubility Diagrams for Cementitious Waste Stabilization Systems: II, End-Member Stoichiometries of Ideal Calcium Silicate Hydrate Solid Solu…
2001
Solubility in the fully hydrated CaO–SiO2–H2O system can be best described using two ideal C-S-H-(I) and C-S-H-(II) binary solid solution phases. The most recent structural ideas about the C-S-H gel permit one to write stoichiometries of polymerized C-S-H-(II) end-members as hydrated precursors of the stable tobermorite and jennite minerals in the form of 5Ca(OH)2·6SiO2·5H2O and 10Ca(OH)2·6SiO2·6H2O, respectively. For thermodynamic modeling purposes, it is more convenient to express the number of basic silica and portlandite units in these stoichiometries using the coefficients nSi and nCa. Thermodynamic solid-solution aqueous-solution equilibrium modeling by applying the Gibbs energy minim…
Modelling of the cation motions in complex system: case of Na-mordenites
2002
Abstract Semi-empirical inter-atomic potentials and Monte Carlo algorithms are proposed to predict the evolution of the interaction energy between sodium ions and a mordenite type aluminosilicate network as a function of Si/Al ratio. This result is favourably compared with the activation energy barriers for Na + `jumps' responsible for the polarization change, measured by thermally stimulated current (TSC) spectroscopy, for Na-mordenites characterized by Si/Al ratios ranged from 5.5 to 12. Finally, we propose a possible mechanism for the cation motions, which involves activation barriers within the same order of magnitude than those measured by TSC.
