Abstract:The heat of hydration evolution of eight paste mixtures of various water to binder ratio and containing various pozzolanic (silica fume, fly ash) and latent hydraulic (granulated blast furnace slag) admixtures have been studied by means of isothermal calorimetry during the first 7 days of the hydration process and by means of solution calorimetry for up to 120 days. The results of early heat of hydration values obtained by both methods are comparable in case of the samples without mineral admixtures; the value… Show more
“…Addition of fly ash more distinctly retards the acceleratory period of cement hydration than slag, this tendency is especially clear for the high substitution rate of fly ashes. This retarding effect of the mineral additions on the cement hydration has been already reported [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35].…”

“…It has been observed in these tests that the evolved heat decreases as slag content increases, but at the same time the heat evolved increases with the fineness of the slag or clinker in the blended cements. Simultaneously, mixtures containing GBFS do not generate higher heat initially, but they generate heat higher than the OPC pastes in the later period [24]. The tests performed at different temperature showed that higher curing temperature increased the reactivity of the slag and a decreased reactivity with an increase in the percentage of slag replacement.…”

“…The hydration heat of blended cements has been investigated by several authors . The hydration of blended cements with different substitution rates of GGBFS has been studied, inter alia, by Roy and Idorn [11], De Schutter [12,13], Escalante et al [14], Saeki and Monteiro [15], Pane and Hansen [16], Binici et al [17], Meinhard and Lackner [18], Ježo et al [19], Chen et al [20], Merzouki et al [21], Hana et al [22], Gruyaert et al [23] and Siler [24]. It has been observed in these tests that the evolved heat decreases as slag content increases, but at the same time the heat evolved increases with the fineness of the slag or clinker in the blended cements.…”
The hydration heat evolution of low clinker cements is studied in a dependence on the testing method and temperature. Four substitution rates of ordinary Portland cement by ground granulated blast furnace slag or siliceous fly ash were used-10, 30, 50 and 70 %. In all cases, the water/binder ratio of the cement paste was 0.5. The heat evolution and the heat evolution rate were monitored over 72 h with the use of two testing methods. The isothermal measurements were carried out with the use of TAM Air isothermal calorimeter at 20 and 50°C. The heat evolution was also determined with the use of a semiadiabatic calorimeter. Part I of the paper presents the results of the experimental tests and discussed the influence of mineral additives on the hydration heat evolution.

“…Subsequently, the heat evolution was monitored for the mixtures composed of 25 % fly ash and 75 % cement CEM I samples. The calorimetric measurements appeared again as a convenient, rapid method of the hydraulic activity assessment, used in case of mineral additives and different modifying agents for a couple of years [15][16][17][18][19][20].…”
The calorimetric measurements were applied in testing the wastes collected from different furnaces in electric power plants as materials to be used in civil engineering. The fly ash materials were collected from two power stations based on different brown coal deposits and working with conventional and fluidized bed installation. The reactivity of high calcium fly ash from sub-bituminous coal combustion has been proved in calorimetric, conductometric, chemical shrinkage, and rheological measurements before their practical implementation on larger scale. Highly soluble components of fly ash contribute to the hydration products and structure formation, followed by setting and hardening of fly ash-cement mixture. These results have been the base of research project aimed in the innovative solutions dealing with the management of deposits of wastes generated as a result of coal combustion. The standardization and potential use on larger scale of these materials, necessary from the environmental point of view, seems to be the question of nearest future.
“…Besides these effects, the reduction in particle size by grinding can boost the effect of heterogeneous nucleation, due to the inclusion of new nucleation sites for deposition of the hydrated products [8][9][10][11][12]. Grinding can also be responsible for promoting partial amorphization and significant increase in specific surface area [5][6][13][14][15][16][17][18].…”
