Accelerated carbonation treatment as an effective approach of reducing the carbon footprint
in the concrete industry is being investigated extensively. Such carbonation treatment …

Carbonation hardening of Portland cement concrete can contribute to lower its CO 2
footprint and to improve its strength. The reaction mechanisms involved in carbonation …

In recent years, the CO 2 curing technique has been developed to enhance the properties of
recycled aggregate (RA) and recycled aggregate concrete (RAC), materials that can absorb …

This study investigated the effect of temperature (5° C–50° C) on the carbonation process,
compressive strength and microstructure of CO 2-cured cement paste. Results showed that …

Abstract Treatment by accelerated carbonation has been widely studied to enhance the
quality of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) and hence the performance of new concrete …

Drying shrinkage deformation due to moisture migration is a major concern in cementitious
materials and can lead to a high probability of cracking, resulting in a deterioration in long …
