Influence of MgO on the Hydration and Shrinkage Behavior of Low Heat Portland Cement-Based Materials via Pore Structural and Fractal Analysis

Lei Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of two types of MgO on the properties of low heat Portland cement-based materials. The results show that reactive MgO extends the induction stage of the cement while weak reactive MgO does not. Addition of MgO reduces the mechanical properties of the concrete, with higher dosages and stronger reactivity leading to larger reductions. M300 is suggested to be applied in mass concrete structures due to its effective compensation of long-term shrinkage and improvement of pore structure.

EFFECTS OF FINENESS AND CONTENT OF PHOSPHORUS SLAG ON CEMENT HYDRATION, PERMEABILITY, PORE STRUCTURE AND FRACTAL DIMENSION OF CONCRETE

Lei Wang et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the fineness and content of PHS have significant effects on the hydration, mechanical strength, and pore structure of concrete. By controlling the fineness and content of PHS, the negative impact on the early strength of concrete can be mitigated. The concrete added with finely ground PHS shows higher compressive strength and better pore structure refinement at both early and late ages.

COMPARISON OF FLY ASH, PVA FIBER, MGO AND SHRINKAGE-REDUCING ADMIXTURE ON THE FROST RESISTANCE OF FACE SLAB CONCRETE VIA PORE STRUCTURAL AND FRACTAL ANALYSIS

Lei Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the improvement of frost resistance of face slab concrete by adding fly ash, fiber, MgO, and shrinkage-reducing admixtures. The results suggest that the combination of PVA fiber and fly ash enhances compressive strength and tensile capacity, while MgO and SRA have a negative impact on the mechanical properties of concrete. Additionally, the frost resistance of concrete is closely related to air void parameters, pore structures, and Ds values.

Macroscopic and microscopic analyses on mechanical performance of metakaolin/fly ash based geopolymer mortar

Peng Zhang et al.

Summary: Through macroscopic and microscopic analyses, this study illustrated the mechanisms of the interaction between nanosilica and polyvinyl alcohol fibers on the mechanical performance of metakaolin/fly ash based geopolymer mortar. It was found that an appropriate amount of nanosilica promoted geopolymerization and improved mechanical properties, while excessive nanosilica negatively impacted the hydration reactions of the materials, leading to reduced strength of the geopolymer mortar.
