How cement-based materials behave in storage operating conditions is important in the
context of a radwaste deep geological repository. In particular, we need missing …

Zeolites are crystalline aluminosilicates with three-dimensional framework structures that
can form in alkali-activated cements, Roman cements, and the interaction zone of cements …

The use of Al-rich supplementary cementitious materials can effectively reduce the
expansion of concrete caused by alkali-silica reaction (ASR). However, the role of Al in …
