It was found that the mechanical behavior of GPC is similar to that of ordinary portland cement (OPC) concrete, suggesting that equations, akin to those given by ACI 318-08, could be applied for ...

However, the performance of molasses on CSA cement is unknown though it is an effective plasticizer and retarder for OPC [39]. To this end, the main objectives of this study are as follows: (1) to evaluate the performance of molasses as plasticizer and retarder for CSA cement; (2) to examine the effect of molasses on the hydration reaction ...

Type I cement (OPC), conforming to ASTM C150 [54], was used in the cement paste/concrete mixtures. It has a specific gravity of 3.15. ... Clearly, zinc oxide is a powerful retarder of cement hydration even at low dosages of addition. For example, at 0.15% zinc oxide, the IST and FST were above 1100 min.

When mixed with Portland cement, PG is a good cement retarder, and a binder can be made by mixing PG with cement clinker [14,15]. Show abstract Phosphogypsum (PG) is a solid waste product that is generated in the phosphoric acid manufacturing process, most of which is currently sent to landfills rather than reused.

Calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA) blended with ordinary Portland cement (OPC) can be used for various application fields like rapid setting, rapid hardening or expansive cements.

Gypsum renders workability to mortar or concrete by keeping the cement in plastic state at early age of hydration. This is achieved by changing the course of hydration of calcium aluminate that...

[0003] In contrast, classic cements like ordinary Portland cement (OPC) or composite cements containing OPC and a pozzolan or latent hydraulic material harden by forming calcium silicate hydrates, calcium aluminate hydrates and/or aluminate silicate hydrates. ... Comparisons were made with other organic acids typically used as retarder in OPC ...

Gypsum plays a crucial role in cement. Though it is used in a small quantity, in the range of 2.5-3.0 percent in terms of SO3, gypsum's role in cement is significant, more predominantly at early ages.

A retarder was mixed with the OPC blended with ACA in order to control the setting time. Table 1: Mineralogical and chemical compositions of the cement OPC, mineral

Chemical admixtures affecting these reactions to produce a delay in the process of cement paste stiffening are termed retarding admixtures or simply retarders. Hence, a retarder is added to a …

Moreover, retarder prolonged the interaction period between the concrete and carbon dioxide, facilitating increased absorption of the gas. This promoted the formation of calcium carbonate, which filled and compacted the pore structure, thereby improving the compressive strength of the concrete with retarder compared to the reference group.

Here we show a hydration control additive that selectively modifies the hydration kinetics, thereby facilitating enhanced dissolution of aluminates (calcium aluminoferrite and …

The primary advantage of CSA cements is that concrete made with CSA instead of portland cement often achieves compressive strengths of in excess of 5000 psi in 24 hours; with CSA's, it's possible to achieve 28 day strength in 24 hours. This is the main reason CSA's are used in place of ordinary portland cement (OPC) for certain applications.

Zinc was focused on as an element causing hardening retardation due to delayed hydration of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), and its hardening inhibitory effect and the mechanism of hardening enhancement by sodium aluminate were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The addition of zinc …
