Hydration study of ternary blended cements containing ferronickel slag and natural pozzolan

Effect of quaternary cementitious systems containing limestone, blast furnace slag and natural pozzolan on mechanical behavior of limestone mortars

“…Specifically, the early strength of blended cements decrease significantly as a result of combined effects of low Portland cement content and relatively high water-to-Portland-cement ratio in blended cement mortars [16,17].…”

Microstructure, electrical and mechanical properties of steel fibres reinforced cement mortars with partial metakaolin and limestone addition

“…The diminishing of cement consumption on mortar and concrete mixes is getting significant attention in recent years; especially its replacement by the use of supplementary materials with pozzolanic properties to address the environmental concern [1][2][3][4][5]. They confirm the effectiveness of calcined clay, in the form of metakaolin (MK) as pozzolanic material on mortar and concrete mixes.…”

Influence of limestone dust and natural pozzolan on engineering properties of self-compacting repair mortars

“…This behavior can be attributed to the fact that hydration provides/produces monocarbo-aluminate, when the finely limestone dust (CaCO3) reacts with C3A [42,43]. Moreover, the decrease in the compressive strength of the SCRM-20NP at 1-day can be attributed to the slowness of the pozzolanic reaction [44]. However, the strength gain was more pronounced for SCRM-20NP beyond 7 days of curing.…”
