Mechanisms and kinetics of C-S-H nucleation approaching the spinodal line: Insights into the role of organics additives
Christophe Labbez, Lina Bouzouaid, Alexander E. S. Van Driessche +4
Wet chemistry C-S-H precipitation experiments were performed under controlled conditions of solution supersaturation in the presence and absence of gluconate and three hexitol mole…
Transformation of 2-line ferrihydrite to goethite at alkaline pH
Fabio E. Furcas, Barbara Lothenbach, Shishir Mundra +5
The transformation of 2-line ferrihydrite to goethite from supersaturated solutions at alkaline pH >= 13.0 was studied using a combination of benchtop and advanced synchrotron tech…
Impact of gluconate and hexitol additives on the precipitation mechanism and kinetics of C-S-H
Lina Bouzouaid, Alexander E. S. Van Driessche, Wai Li Ling +5
The present paper investigates the influence of gluconate and hexitol additives on the precipitation mechanism and kinetics of C-S-H. To this end, wet chemistry C-S-H precipitation…
Gluconate and hexitols effects on C-S-H solubility
Lina Bouzouaid, Barbara Lothenbach, Alejandro Fernandez-Martinez +1
This study investigates the effect of gluconate, a carboxylate ion, and three uncharged hexitols, D-sorbitol, D-mannitol and D-galactitol on the solubility of C-S-H. Thermodynamic…
Predicting damage in aggregates due to the volume increase of the alkali-silica reaction products
Emil R. Gallyamov, Andreas Leemann, Barbara Lothenbach +1
Volume increase between the reactants and the products of alkali silica reaction could reach up to 100%. Taking place inside the aggregates, ASR imposes internal pressure on the su…
Portlandite solubility and Ca2+ activity in presence of gluconate and hexitols
Lina Bouzouaid, Barbara Lothenbach, Alejandro Fernandez-Martinez +1
The current paper investigates the impact of gluconate, D-sorbitol, D-mannitol and D-galactitol on calcium speciation at high pH values by i) solubility measurements of portlandite…
