This work aims to contribute to reducing environmental damage caused by the
manufacturing of Portland cements (PC), through in-depth exploration into the durability of …

Quantum‐mechanical calculations based on the density functional theory (DFT) enable an
effective characterization of a variety of properties of materials at the atomistic level …

This study investigates the wet carbonation of concrete fines with CO2 and natural air gas
bubbling in a carbonation system at low temperatures. After the air-and CO2-wet …

Silica fume (SF) is an essential material for formulating high performance concrete (HPC).
However, its small particle size could cause safety-hazards. Although replacing SF powder …

In the last years, the addition of silicon to hydroxyapatite and tricalcium-phosphate materials
is being widely studied, due to the well-known influence of silicon on bone formation …

This paper investigates the effects of dewatering on the strength and microstructure of
mortars manufactured from Portland cement, hydrated calcium lime (CL90), and natural …

The addition of water is used to past by internal post-curing of hardening cement. Hydration
and curing of cementitious are widely identified by non-destructive^ 1H nuclear magnetic …

This study aimed to study the effects of different carbonation–hydration processes and
carbonation degrees on the mechanical properties and leaching behavior of heavy metals in …

Based on the decades of studies and commercial experiments, the geo-sequestration of
carbon dioxide (CO 2) has been the most efficient way to solve the green gas emission …
