  • Impedance Spectroscopy (IS) has been used to study microstructure and hydration mechanism of cement pastes. In this work, the early hydration behaviour of portland cement paste with different blame values and contents of blast-furnace slag was investigated by IS. As slag was added to portland cement, the values of $R_{t(s+1)}$ (the solid-liquid phase resistance) and $R_{t(int)}$ were decreased in the early hydration period. It showed that hydration of cement paste containing slag was slower than it of the reference cement paste. As the content of slag was increased, the values of $R_{t(s+1)}$ was decreased. Furthermore, the diameter of semicircle, $R_{t(int)}$ observed at 72 hours was decreased with the increment of slag content. However, the values of $R_{t(s+1)}$ and $R_{t(int)}$ were increased with blame value of slag from the early hydration period.

  • Calcium sulfoalumiante(CSA) was prepared for using natural calcite($CaCO_3$) and industrial by-products and wastes, such as $Al(OH)_3,\;CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$. The mixture of raw materials was fired at 20, 400, 600, $1200^{\circ}C$ for 1h and cooled rapidly in air. The cement replaced by 10 wt% $C_4A_3S$ expansive additives was investigated by the measurement of the hydration products and compressive strength, setting time, expansion at wet curing condition. $C_4A_3S$ was found in x-ray diffraction pattern over the temperature $1200^{\circ}C$. The setting time or the cement pastes added clinkers fired at different temperature was shorter than ordinary portland cement. The compressive strength was higher than the ordinary portland cement about 20~30%. The mainly hydration products were ettringite, and $Ca(OH)_2$. The expansion due to the formation of ettringite during hydration decreased the drying shrinkage of hardened cement rather than the ordinary portland cement.

  • When concrete is exposed to neutron rays for a long time, the concrete tends to become activated. If activated, it is classified as middle or low level radioactive waste. However, the great amount of the activated concrete is hard to dispose. In this study, low-activation cement was developed for decreasing the activated waste from shielding concrete around nuclear reactor. Furthermore, the manufactured low-activation was analyzed with activation nuclide Eu, Co. The low-activation cement showed great advantage for low-activation with detecting none of Eu and 3.75ppm of Co while ordinary portland cement showed 0.4~0.9ppm of Eu, 5.5~19.8ppm of Co content. As the results of physical properties of the low-activation cement, it is similar to type 1 ordinary portland cement and accords with type 4 low heat portland cement. Meanwhile, as for the chemical properties of the cement, it accords wite type 1 and 4 at the same time.

  • In order to use the mine tailing which was generated in the flotation process of scheelite ore into the raw material of ordinary portland cement, the characteristics of the prepared cement clinker was investigated. Scheelite mine tailing is composed of 68.8% of $SiO_2$, 8.6% of $Al_2$$O_3$, 10.8% of $Fe_2$$O_3$, 5.0% of CaO, respectively. It exists as $\alpha$-quartz, muscovite, clinochlore and has 8.0% of 88 $\mu\textrm{m}$ residue. When LSF, SM, and IM of the raw materials (such as limestone, convertor slag, fly ash, and mine tailing) are 91.0, 2.60, and 1.60, respectively, the burnability index of the raw materials is 50.7, the crystal size of $C_3$S and $\beta$-C$_2$S in the prepared clinker is 15∼35$\mu\textrm{m}$, and about 3.8% of scheelite mine tailing can be used as raw material.
