Objectives The introduction of hydraulic cement sealers has increased the popularity of
single cone obturation where the chemistry and properties of hydraulic cement sealers are …

With growing demand for the development of multifunctional, high-performance, and high
durable construction materials, numerous studies on calcium aluminate cement (CAC) …

Electrolytic manganese residue (EMR) contains high concentrations of NH 4+ and heavy
metals, such as Mn 2+, Zn 2+, Cu 2+, Pb 2+, Ni 2+ and Co 2+, while carbide slag (CS) …

In the present work the hydration of white CAC, inert alumina-filler and CaCO 3 was
investigated at different temperatures with in-situ XRD. Experiments were performed at 10° …

Abstract RO phases account for 8.5–16.9 wt% of steel slags and exhibit delayed hydration
activity, which may result in poor volume stability of steel slags (SS). Treatment of alkali …

In-depth understanding regarding the carbonation properties of pure minerals including β-
dicalcium silicate (β-C 2 S), calcium hydroxide (CH), and tetracalcium aluminoferrite (C 4 …

Basic oxygen furnace slag (BOFS) is one of many alkaline industrial residues. However,
BOFS has a low utilization value, and it also may have environmental issues in the practical …

With the ever-expanding presence of solar energy, the design of cost-efficient heat energy
storage systems is becoming increasingly relevant. Concrete is a potential solid material for …

The effect on porosity (including absorption and sorpitivity) of cement paste and
mortar/concrete, of limestone addition to Portland cement is assessed. Based on globally …

Steel slag (SS) exhibits low hydration activities and expansive phases, which should be
pretreated prior to using as binding materials. Thus, these properties of SS were improved …
