Ice nucleation by ordinary Portland cement
Portland cement was studied for its nucleating ability by the freezing behaviour exhibited of drops produced from aqueous suspension of Portland cement vis-a-vis of drops produced from suspensions of AgI, 2AgI.NaI and PbI,. I t is revealing to note that, at temperature colder than 5"C, Portland cement is as potent an ice nucleant as is either 2AgIaNaI or PbI,. At temperatures approaching 5"C, P...
متن کاملDrying Shrinkage Mechanisms in Portland Cement Paste
The shrinkage mechanisms of portland cement paste were investigated from shrinkage, weight loss, and pore structure measurements using nitrogen sorption and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). Thin samples (2.3 mm) of well-hydrated (165 d) pastes of 0.4 and 0.6 water-to-cement (W/C) ratios were dried directly from saturated surface dry state to 75%, SO%, 11%, and 0% relative humidity (rh). Fro...
متن کاملNew System of Shrinkage Measurement through Cement Mortars Drying
Cement mortar is used as a conglomerate in the majority of construction work. There are multiple variants of cement according to the type of aggregate used in its fabrication. One of the major problems that occurs while working with this type of material is the excessive loss of moisture during cement hydration (setting and hardening), known as shrinkage, which provokes a great number of constr...
متن کاملInfluence of Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles on the Sulfate Attack upon Ordinary Portland Cement and Slag-Blended Mortars
In this study, the effects of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticles on the sulfate attack resistance of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and slag-blended mortars were investigated. OPC and slag-blended mortars (OPC:Slag = 50:50) were made with water to binder ratio of 0.4 and a binder to sand ratio of 1:3. TiO₂ was added as an admixture as 0%, 3%, 6%, 9% and 12% of the binder weight. Mortar speci...
متن کاملFreezing of water in portland cement paste - an ac impedance spectroscopy study
The freezing of water in Portland cement paste was investigated using a.c. impedance spectroscopy techniques. Length change and impedance measurements on cooling and warming were obtained simultaneously using a specially designed coupling technique. A new descriptor of frost resistance is described in terms of the high frequency arc depression angle in the impedance plane. Curves of the depress...
