Graphene oxide (GO) has been found to be an attractive nanomaterial to improve the properties of cementitious composites. However, the use of GO in the industry is limited by its high cost. To achieve a higher cost/performance ratio, GO can be strategically applied in certain parts of cementitious composites structure according to the principle of functionally graded materials. In this study, graded distribution of GO in cement mortar was achieved by sequentially casting a fresh GO-incorporated cement layer on another cement mortar layer. The mechanical properties, especially flexural strength, of layered cement mortar were found to be dependent on the GO content, the delay time, and the interface formed due to layering fabrication. With the GO incorporated in the tensile region only (30% of the total depth), the flexural strength of the layered beam attained 90.91% of that of the beam, with GO uniformly distributed throughout the sample. Based on the results of rapid chloride migration tests, when 12 mm GO-incorporated cement mortar layer was used, the chloride migration coefficient was reduced by 21.45%. It was also found that the measured chloride migration coefficient of layered cement mortar agreed with the series model. The present investigation provides an efficient approach to use GO in cement-based materials from the perspective of mechanical and durability properties. 相似文献

Graphene’s outstanding properties make it a potential material for reinforced cementitious composites. However, its shortcomings, such as easy agglomeration and poor dispersion, severely restrict its application in cementitious materials. In this paper, a highly dispersible graphene (TiO2-RGO) with better dispersibility compared with graphene oxide (GO) is obtained through improvement of the graphene preparation method. In this study, both GO and TiO2-RGO can improve the pore size distribution of cement mortars. According to the results of the mercury intrusion porosity (MIP) test, the porosity of cement mortar mixed with GO and TiO2-RGO was reduced by 26% and 40%, respectively, relative to ordinary cement mortar specimens. However, the TiO2-RGO cement mortars showed better pore size distribution and porosity than GO cement mortars. Comparative tests on the strength and durability of ordinary cement mortars, GO cement mortars, and TiO2-RGO cement mortars were conducted, and it was found that with the same amount of TiO2-RGO and GO, the TiO2-RGO cement mortars have nearly twice the strength of GO cement mortars. In addition, it has far higher durability, such as impermeability and chloride ion penetration resistance, than GO cement mortars. These results indicate that TiO2-RGO prepared by titanium dioxide (TiO2) intercalation can better improve the strength and durability performance of cement mortars compared to GO. 相似文献

Graphene oxide-modified rubberized engineered cementitious composite (GO-RECC) is attracting the attention of researchers because of the reported benefits of the GO and crumb rubber (CR) on the strength and deformation properties of the composite. While it is well established that GO negatively affects the workability of cementitious composites, its influence on the attainment of the desired self-compacting (SC) properties of ECC has not yet been thoroughly investigated, especially when combined with crumb rubber (CR). In addition, to simplify the number of trial mixes involved in designing SC-GO-RECC, there is a need to develop and optimize the process using Design of Experiment (DOE) methods. Hence, this research aims to investigate and model using response surface methodology (RSM), the combined effects of the GO and CR on the SC properties of ECC through the determination of T500, slump flow, V-funnel, and L-box ratio of the SC-GORECC as the responses, following the European Federation of National Associations Representing for Concrete (EFNARC) 2005 specifications. The input factors considered were the GO by wt.% of cement (0.02, 0.04, 0.06, and 0.08) and CR as a replacement of fine aggregate by volume (5, 10, and 15%). The results showed that increasing the percentages of GO and CR affected the fresh properties of the SC-GORECC adversely. However, all mixes have T500 of 2.4 to 5.2 s, slump flow of 645 to 800 mm, V-funnel time of 7.1 to 12.3 s, and L-box ratio (H2/H1) of 0.8 to 0.98, which are all within acceptable limits specified by EFNARC 2005. The developed response prediction models were well fitted with R2 values ranging from 91 to 99%. Through the optimization process, optimal values of GO and CR were found to be 0.067% and 6.8%, respectively, at a desirability value of 1.0. 相似文献

The CO2 emissions from the cement industry and the production of waste wood chips are increasing with the rapid growth of the construction industry. In order to develop a green environmental protection building material with low thermal conductivity and up to standard mechanical properties, in this study, pine waste wood chips were mixed into cement-based materials as fine aggregate, and three different kinds of cementitious binders were used, including sulfur aluminate cement (SAC), ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS), to prepare a recycled light cementitious composite material. The mechanical, thermal conductivity, shrinkage, water absorption, and pore structure of a wood chip light cementitious composite material were studied by changing the Ch/B (the mass ratio of wood chip to binder). The results showed that the strength, dry density, and thermal conductivity of the specimens decreased significantly with the increase in the Ch/B, while the shrinkage, water absorption, and pore size increased with the increase in the Ch/B. By comparing three different kinds of cementitious binders, the dry density of the material prepared with OPC was 942 kg/m3, the compressive strength of the material prepared with SAC was 13.5 MPa, and the thermal conductivity of the material prepared with slag was the lowest at 0.15 W/m/K. From the perspective of low-cost and low-carbon emissions, it was determined that the best way to prepare a light cementitious composite with waste wood chips is to use granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) as the cementitious binder. 相似文献

The use of ammonia soda residue (ASR) to prepare building materials is an effective way to dispose of ASR on a large scale, but this process suffers from a lack of data and theoretical basis. In this paper, a composite cementitious material was prepared using ASR and cement, and the hydration mechanism of cementitious materials with 5%, 10%, and 20% ASR was studied. The XRD and SEM results showed that the main hydration products of ASR-cement composite cementitious materials were an amorphous C-S-H gel, hexagonal plate-like Ca(OH)2 (CH), and regular hexagonal plate-like Friedel’s salt (FS). The addition of ASR increased the heat of hydration of the cementitious material, which increased upon increasing the ASR content. The addition of ASR also reduced the cumulative pore volume of the hardened paste, which displayed the optimal pore structure when the ASR content was 5%. In addition, ASR shortened the setting time compared with the cement group, and the final setting times of the pastes with 5%, 10%, and 20% ASR were 30 min, 45 min, and 70 min shorter, respectively. When the ASR content did not exceed 10%, the 3-day compressive strength of the mortar was significantly improved, but the 28-day compressive strength was worse. Finally, the hydration mechanism and potential applications of the cementitious material are discussed. The results of this paper promote the use of ASR in building materials to reduce CO2 emissions in the cement industry. 相似文献

Cement production is environmentally unsustainable due to the high anthropogenic carbon emissions produced. Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), derived from the by-products of different industries, have been deemed an effective way to reduce carbon emissions. The reduction in carbon emissions is achieved by lowering the clinker factor of cement, through a partial replacement with an SCM. Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (SCBA) is produced as an agricultural waste from the sugarcane industry and has gained a lot of attention for being a feasible and readily available pozzolanic material, underutilised as an SCM. This study evaluates alkali-activated sugarcane bagasse ash’s mechanical and durability performance, at varied contents, in binary blended cement concrete and ternary blended cement concrete containing silica fume (SF). Potassium Hydroxide (KOH), used as the alkali activator, is intended to enhance the reactivity of the ash, with the possibility of a high-volume SCBA content. The mechanical performance was investigated by compressive and split tensile strength tests, and durability performance was investigated using the Oxygen Permeability Index (OPI) test. In addition, a micro-CT porosity test was conducted to assess how the microstructure and porosity of the concrete affect the mechanical and durability performance. The results indicated that using SCBA in a ternary blend with SF can significantly improve the overall performance and create less porous concrete. At 30% SCBA and 10% SF replacement, the performance tests revealed the highest mechanical strength and the lowest permeability, outperforming the control concrete and the binary blended cement concrete containing only SCBA. 相似文献

Cementitious composites have good ductility and pseudo-crack control. However, in practical applications of these composites, the external load and environmental erosion eventually form a large crack in the matrix, resulting in matrix fracture. The fracture of cementitious composite materials causes not only structural insufficiency, but also economic losses associated with the maintenance and reinforcement of cementitious composite components. Therefore, it is necessary to study the fracture properties of cementitious composites for preventing the fracture of the matrix. In this paper, a multi-crack cracking model, fictitious crack model, crack band model, pseudo-strain hardening model, and double-K fracture model for cementitious composites are presented, and their advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. The multi-crack cracking model can determine the optimal mixing amount of fibers in the matrix. The fictitious crack model and crack band model are stress softening models describing the cohesion in the fracture process area. The pseudo-strain hardening model is mainly applied to ductile materials. The double-K fracture model mainly describes the fracture process of concrete. Additionally, the effects of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibers and steel fibers (SFs) on the fracture properties of the matrix are analyzed. The fracture properties of cementitious composite can be greatly improved by adding 1.5–2% PVA fiber or 4% steel fiber (SF). The fracture property of cementitious composite can also be improved by adding 1.5% steel fiber and 1% PVA fiber. However, there are many problems to be solved for the application of cementitious composites in actual engineering. Therefore, further research is needed to solve the fracture problems frequently encountered in engineering. 相似文献

Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), such as fly ash (FA), blast furnace slag (BS), and silica fume (SF), have been mostly used as a replacement for Portland cement (PC). Replacing the SCMs with cement can provide improved strength characteristics; however, their applicability depends on the flow characteristics of the fresh mixtures. In this study, the rheological performance of cementitious suspensions in paste scale with different water-to-solid (W/S) volume ratios, varied from 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.00, 2.25, to 2.50, was evaluated. As a result of the rheological tests, the yield stress and plastic viscosity of PC, FA, BS, and SF suspensions decreased as the W/S ratio increased. This study also estimated the inter-particle distances of the cementitious suspensions, and their relationship to the rheological properties was established. The inter-particle distances of the PC, FA, BS, and SF suspensions were in the ranges of 5.74~14.67 µm, 5.18~11.66 µm, 3.82~9.34 µm, and 0.107~0.27 µm, respectively. For very fine particles with a large surface area, the sensitivity to the rheological properties was high and the sensitivity was low when the particle sizes increased, indicating that the rheological properties were more sensitive to fine particles. 相似文献

Electrically conductive cementitious composites (ECCCs) have been widely used to complete functional and smart construction projects. Graphite, due to its low cost and wide availability, is a promising electrically conductive filler to generate electrically conductive networks in cement matrixes. Cement-based materials provide an ideal balance of safety, environmental protection, strength, durability, and economy. Today, graphite is commonly applied in traditional cementitious materials. This paper reviews previous studies regarding the effects and correlations of the use of graphite-based materials as conductive fillers on the properties of traditional cementitious materials. The dispersion, workability, cement hydration, mechanical strength, durability, and electrically conductive mechanisms of cementitious composites modified with graphite are summarized. Graphite composite modification methods and testing methods for the electrical conductivity of ECCCs are also summarized. 相似文献

This experimental study focuses on the assessment of mineral additives and their incorporation into cement composites (CC). The assessment was based on a holistic approach to the performance of the durability properties of CC. Environmental suitability was also taken into consideration. In the experiments, cement pastes with w/c ratios of 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5, respectively, were prepared. Natural zeolite (NZ) and densified silica fume (SF) at doses of 7.5 and 15.0 wt.% of cement were used as the investigated (replacement) materials. Their effects (including development over time) on density, strength (flexural and compressive), porosity by water absorption, permeability by rapid chloride penetration (RCP) test, phase content by thermal analysis, and hydration progression, were observed. The results were then used to propose an evaluation approach. Natural zeolite was used for its known pozzolanic activity and classification as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM). In contrast SF acted as a filler in cement pastes, and thus did not have a direct positive effect on durability. The concept of comprehensive analysis for unknown additive classification is proposed to expressly differentiate between SCM, inert, and improving mineral additive. This concept could be applied to the assessment of mineral additives with regards to the durability and suitability of cement composites. 相似文献

Soft soil improvement is an important subject in civil engineering, and searching for an effective admixture is an important research. Silica fume (SF) is a kind of recycled material, it can be used in engineering as a pozzolanic material. The main objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of industrial waste silica fume (SF) as an admixture to improve the cement stabilized soft soil. The unconfined compressive test (UCT) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) test of cement stabilized soil with different SF contents and different curing times have been carried out. UCT after 28 days revealed that the addition of SF can effectively increase the strength of cement stabilized soil and reduce the amount of cement, and 1.5% SF content is considered optimum, excessive SF will not further increase the strength. SF helped to accelerate the cement hydration reaction and significantly improve the early-age strength of stabilized soil even at 3 days, which can improve construction efficiency in actual projects. SEM analyses shows that the proper SF content could make the hydration product calcium silicate hydrate gel (CSH) fill the pores and increase the strength of the material, but excessive SF will increase the large pores content of the material and reduce the strength. This provided a basis for application of SF in improving soft soil. 相似文献

Nowadays, concretes blended with pozzolanic additives such as fly ash (FA), silica fume (SF), slag, etc., are often used in construction practices. The utilization of pozzolanic additives and industrial by-products in concrete and grouting materials has an important role in reducing the Portland cement usage, the CO2 emissions, and disposal issues. Thus, the goal of the present work is to estimate the compressive strength (CS) of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and two supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), namely FA and SF, blended cementitious grouts to produce green mix. For this purpose, five hybrid least-square support vector machine (LSSVM) models were constructed using swarm intelligence algorithms, including particle swarm optimization, grey wolf optimizer, salp swarm algorithm, Harris hawks optimization, and slime mold algorithm. To construct and validate the developed hybrid models, a sum of 156 samples were generated in the lab with varying percentages of PET and SCM. To estimate the CS, five influencing parameters, namely PET, SCM, FLOW, 1-day CS (CS1D), and 7-day CS (CS7D), were considered. The performance of the developed models was assessed in terms of multiple performance indices. Based on the results, the proposed LSSVM-PSO (a hybrid model of LSSVM and particle swarm optimization) was determined to be the best performing model with R2 = 0.9708, RMSE = 0.0424, and total score = 40 in the validation phase. The results of sensitivity analysis demonstrate that all the input parameters substantially impact the 28-day CS (CS28D) of cementitious grouts. Among them, the CS7D has the most significant effect. From the experimental results, it can be deduced that PET/SCM has no detrimental impact on CS28D of cementitious grouts, making PET a viable alternative for generating sustainable and green concrete. In addition, the proposed LSSVM-PSO model can be utilized as a novel alternative for estimating the CS of cementitious grouts, which will aid engineers during the design phase of civil engineering projects. 相似文献

Due to the low content of silicon and aluminum in red mud and the low reaction activity of red mud, when it was used to prepare composite cementitious materials, it was necessary to assist other aluminosilicates and improve their activity by certain methods. In this study, it was proposed to add slag to increase the percentage of silicon and aluminum in the system, and to improve the reactivity of the system through the activation effect of sulfate in phosphogypsum. The effects of slag and phosphogypsum contents on the mechanical properties and microstructures of composite cementitious materials were studied. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TG-DTG), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the effects of slag and phosphogypsum contents on the hydration products, microstructure, and strength formation mechanism of composite cementitious materials. The results show that with the increase of slag, the strength of the composite cementitious material increases gradually. When the slag content is 50%, the 28-day compressive strength reaches a maximum of about 14 MPa. Compared with the composite material without phosphogypsum, the composite cementitious material with 10–20% phosphogypsum showed higher strength properties, in which the 28-day compressive strength exceeds 24 MPa. The main reason for this is that the sulfate in phosphogypsum can cause the composite cementitious material to generate a large amount of ettringite and accelerate the dissolution of red mud and slag, increasing the release of aluminates, silicates, and Ca2+ to form more C-(A)-S-H and ettringite. In addition, a large amount of C-(A)-S-H makes ettringite and unreacted particles combine into a uniform and compact structure, thus improving the strength. When the content of phosphogypsum exceeds 40%, the 28-day compressive strength of the composite cementitious material drops below 12 MPa due to the presence of fewer hydration products and the expansion of ettringite. 相似文献

The development of mold films on the cement surfaces of buildings is a health and safety problem for the population, aesthetic but also in terms of their durability. The use of specific performance of cementitious composites containing TiO2 nanoparticles, photoactivated by UV radiation, can be a viable solution to mitigate to eliminate these problems. The experimental studies presented aim to analyze the capacity to inhibit the development of mold type Aspergillus and Penicillium on the surface of composite materials with nano-TiO2 content and the identification of the optimal range of nanomaterial addition. The identification and analysis of the inhibition halo (zone with a biological load of maximum 1–10 colonies of microorganisms) confirmed the biocidal capacity of the cementitious composites, but also indicated the possibility that an excess of TiO2 nanoparticles in the mixture could induce a development of cell resistance, which would be unfavorable both in terms of behavior and in terms of cost. 相似文献

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nanofibers (CNFs) were synthesized on clinker and silica fume particles in order to create a low cost cementitious nanostructured material. The synthesis was carried out by an in situ chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process using converter dust, an industrial byproduct, as iron precursor. The use of these materials reduces the cost, with the objective of application in large-scale nanostructured cement production. The resulting products were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and were found to be polydisperse in size and to have defective microstructure. Some enhancement in the mechanical behavior of cement mortars was observed due to the addition of these nano-size materials. The contribution of these CNTs/CNFs to the mechanical strength of mortar specimens is similar to that of high quality CNTs incorporated in mortars by physical mixture. 相似文献

From the perspective of improving the self-healing method in construction, a tubular healing fiber was adopted as a container to improve the encapsulation capacity, which was available using a micro-capsule as a container. Knowing the direction of the stresses to which structure members are subjected, this research investigated the influence of aligning tubular healing fibers parallel to intended stress into a cementitious composite to increase the self-healing capability. For that, a healing agent was encapsulated into a tubular healing fiber made with polyvinylidene of fluoride resin (PVDF). Then, the healing fiber was combined with steel fibers to align both fibers together parallel to the direction of an intended splitting tensile stress when subjected to a magnetic field in a cylindrical cementitious composite. The alignment method and the key point through which the alignment of the healing fibers could efficiently improve autonomic self-healing were investigated. Since the magnetic field is known to be able to drag steel to an expected direction, steel fibers were combined with the healing fibers to form a hybrid fiber that aligned both fibers together. The required mixture workability was investigated to avoid the sinking of the healing fibers into the mixture. The healing efficiency, according to the orientation of the healing fibers in the composite matrix, was evaluated through a permeability test and a repetitive splitting tensile test. The aligned healing fibers performed better than the randomly distributed healing fibers. However, according to the healing efficiency with aligned healing fibers, it was deduced that the observed decreasing effect of the container’s alignment on the specimen’s mechanical properties was low enough to be neglected. 相似文献

The building industry is known as one of the biggest consumers of natural resources and an important producer of CO2 emissions. The biggest greenhouse gas emissions are recorded in the production of cement and metallic building materials. The purpose of this paper is to investigate if magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC) can be used as an alternative to the ordinary Portland cement in the mixture of wood–cement composite building materials in order to decrease the negative impact of the construction industry on the environment. The research methodology includes bibliometric literature research, a scientometric analysis and an in-depth discussion. The data used for the research were obtained by interrogating the ISI Web of Science database, selected using the guidelines of the PRISMA method and processed with the help of VOSviewer and Bibliometrix software. The research results indicate an increasing interest in this topic; for example, in the last five years, three times more articles were published on the subject of MOC cement than the number of all articles collected in previous years. Compared to ordinary Portland cement, MOC cement presents a good match with wood, so MOC can be a substitute for ordinary cement to manufacture wood-cement particleboard, especially for the wood species that have high incompatibility with ordinary cement. 相似文献

As a nano-carbon material with excellent properties, Graphene oxide (GO) has been widely used in cement-based materials, and the negative effect of paste workability caused by GO agglomeration has also been widely concerning. In this study, a polycarboxylate-silane modified graphene oxide composite (PSG) was prepared by coupling polycarboxylate molecules to the surface of graphene oxide (GO) via a reaction with vinyl triethoxysilane. The effects of GO and PSG on the cement paste and the mechanisms underpinning these effects were investigated using fluidity and rheological parameter measurements, and ion concentration and zeta potential analyses. It was found that, in the aqueous phase of the paste, the polycarboxylate molecular chains on the surface of the PSG complexed with calcium ions (Ca2+), thereby preventing Ca2+ from bridging the GO sheets, and thus stabilizing the surface potential and the electrostatic repulsion. This prevented the PSG from forming an agglomerate structure such as that formed by GO under the same conditions, thereby substantially enhancing workability of paste with nano-carbon material. This study provides some new foundations and ideas for the further application of graphene oxide materials in cement-based materials. 相似文献

The use of nanomaterials to enhance the physical and mechanical properties and durability of cement materials in their hardened state has been studied for a long time in many investigations. In comparison, fewer studies focus on nanomaterials’ influence on the fresh state when the cement reaction starts. In addition, if we consider ternary blended cement (as those used for applications in marine environments), this has been rarely studied. Severe stresses in the marine environment require high durability, which is achieved by using pozzolanic additions, to the detriment of a rapid achievement of the properties. The addition of nanomaterials could contribute to increasing the durability and also accelerating the setting of the concrete. In this work, we performed a systematic and comparative study on the influence of adding graphene oxide (GO), nanosilica (NS), and microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) during the setting mechanisms of cement (CEM V/A suitable for concrete subjected to external attacks in marine environments) blended with fly ash and slag. Cement hardening was examined through setting time and rheology within mini-slump tests. The effect of nanoadditives on the cement hydration was analysed by heat flow calorimetry to evaluate the acceleration potential. Exploring the three nanoadditives on the same formulation, we could establish that the retention of mixing water significantly decreased workability for MFC. In contrast, NS increases the hydration of cement particles, acting as nucleation nodes and promoting supplementary cement hydrates (pozzolanic reactions) and accelerating setting time. Finally, GO showed a reduction in workability. We also investigated the dosage effects on mechanical behaviour at an early age and discovered an improvement even at low GO (0.006%) and NS (3%) dosages. We have also analysed the dosage effects on mechanical behaviour at an early age. 相似文献

At present, the treatment of tailings is mostly carried out in the form of stacking in tailings ponds, resulting in a huge waste of mineral resources and a major threat to the environment and ecology. Using tailings instead of a part of the cement to make cementitious materials is an effective way to reduce the accumulation of tailings. In this paper, lead–zinc tailings-based cementitious materials were prepared by using lead–zinc tailings, fly ash, and ordinary Portland cement, and the effects of four factors on the mechanical properties of lead–zinc tailings, as well as fly ash content, cement content, and water–binder ratio were studied by orthogonal experiments. The corresponding relationship between the factors and the properties of cementitious materials was determined, and the optimization and prediction of the raw material ratio of lead–zinc tailings-based cementitious materials were realized. The test showed the ratio of raw materials to be at the lowest price ratio. Synchronously the ratio that meets the minimum strength requirements was predicted. When the proportion of fly ash:lead and zinc tailings:cement = 30:40:30 and the water–binder ratio was 0.4, the predicted compressive strength of the prepared cementitious material achieved 22.281 MPa, which meets the strength requirements, while the total content of lead–zinc tailings and fly ash was the highest at this time. 相似文献
