The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of silica fume (SF) on the hydration heat and compressive strength of concrete. Portland cement with w/(c+sf) ratios varying between 0.25 to 0.45 was substituted by 10%, 20% and 30% of SF by mass. A superplasticizer was used to maintain a fluid consistency of the concrete. The heat of hydration was monitored continuously by a semi-adiabatic calorimetric method for 10 days at $20^{\circ}C$. Compressive strengths are tested for each mixture until age of 180 days. The results show that silica fume considerably influences the evolution and the ultimate values of the compressive strengths as well as the hydration heat especially for 10% rate. The w/b ratio has a considerable effect where its decrease modifies compressive strength and hydration heat more than silica fume. The correlation of the obtained results allows deducing of ultimate properties as well as the ages to reach half of their values. The correlation coefficients are close to unity and reflect the judicious choice of these relationships to be used to predict compressive strength and hydration heat.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of monosaccharides extracted by saturated portland cement solution on the cement setting in comparision with the inhibitory index (I) of each lignocellulosic-cement system. The wood species which have been widely reforested in Korea, Populus alba-grandulosa, Larix leptolepis, Abies holophylla, Pinus koraiensis, Pinus rigida, Pinus densiflora and agricultural wastes of rice husk and rice stalk were used at this study. The wood meal, 0.50g on dry weight basis, through 0.83 mm(20 mesh) and retained on 0.35mm (40 mesh) screen was extracted by 25 ml saturated portland cement solution and the pH of saturated portland cement solution Was 12.7. To eliminate cation exsisting in the extracted solution, the cation exchange column was used (Fig. 4). Afterwards the extracted monosaccharides were reduced into alditols with sodium borohydride and analyzed by the gas-liquid chromatography for xylan, mannan, arabinan, galactan, gluean. The heat of cement hydration for lignocellulosic-cement system was measured in Dewar flask (Fig. 2). And then the inhibitory indices were calculated from maximum hydration temperature, time and maximum slops of hydration curve of ligno cellulosic-cement systems. The results obtained were as follows; (1) The inhibitory index of pines-Pinus rigida (I=29.33) and Pinus densiflora (I=35.76), were lower than that of poplar-Populus alba-glandulosa (I=41.48), and the index of Larix ieptoiepis (I=73.00) was the highest among eight lignocellulosic-cement systems, and accordingly both Pinus rigida and Pinus des(flora were seemed to be good wood species for wood-cement composite manufacture. (2) In case of Pinus rigida, the inhibitory index was 29.33 and the ratio of the hexoses to the pemoses was 6.04 and in case of Larix leptolepis, the index and the ratio were 73.00 and 35.19, respectively. Therefore the inhibitory index increased with increasing the ratios of the hexoses to the pentoses. (3) The richer amount of xylose and mannose in species caused decreasing the slops of the hydration curve of the lignocellulosic-cement system, prohahly due to the chemical adsorption of the acetyl groups in the hemicellulose on the surface of cement grains. (4) The amoun of xylose and mannose were significant to the inhibitory index of each lignocellulosic-cement system but any specific relation between the amount of glucose and inhibitory index was not found.

The purpose of this study was the development of a recycling process to recover the hydraulic properties of hydration products which account for a large proportion of cementitious powder from concrete waste. This process was performed to recycle cementitious powder as recycle cement. Therefore, after the theoretical consideration of the properties of recycle process of recycled aggregates and cementitious powder, we investigated the hydraulic properties of cementitious powder under various temperature conditions in hardened mortar which was modeled on concrete waste. And we analyzed properties of chemical reactions of recycled cement with admixture materials such as Fly-Ash, Blast Furnace Slag As a result of the experiment, the most effective method to recover hydraulic properties of the cementitious powder from concrete waste was condition of burning at 700℃ for 120 minute. And it is shown that the fluidity of mortar was decreased rapidly when the burning temperature of recycle cement was increased. However, the compressive strength and fluidity were improved significantly when admixture materials such as Fly-Ash or Blast Furnace Slag was added.

The concrete quality relies on general factors like preparation technique, uniformity of the compaction, amount and appropriateness of the additives. The current article investigates the impact of a well knows amino acid, L-arginine as an additive on water requirements, setting durations and characterization of various cement samples. Compressive strength tests of reference and L-arginine added cements at age of 2, 7 and 28 days were carried out according to TS-EN 196-1. Samples were blended by incorporating various amounts of L-arginine (25 ppm, 50 ppm and 75 ppm) in the cement water mixture which were tested with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TG), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) on the 28th day. Results revealed that L-arginine does not affect the setting time, volume expansion of cement and water demands negatively; rather it imparts enhanced sustainability to the samples. It was determined that the highest value belonged to the 75L mortar with an increase of 2.6% compared to the reference sample when the compressive strengths of all mortars were compared on the 28th day. Besides, it has been observed that the development of calcium silicate hydrate or C-S-H gel, calcium hydroxide or CH and other hydrated products are associated with each other. L-arginine definitely has a contribution in the consumption of CH formed in the hydration process.

Converter slag has some compositional similarities to portland cement. But it has no hydration properties due to it's quite high concentrations of FeO(20-35%), MnO(4-6.5%). So it is needed to reduce the concentrations of iron and manganese of converter slag to use as cement additives by enhancing it's hydration properties. In this study, converter slag was modified it's composition by mixing of silica, alumina and quenched BF slag and reduced in induction furnace and quenched in running water. The hydraulic properties and structures of modified and quenched converter slag are significantly changed depend on the amount and kinds of additives. The addition of alumina up to 10% and BFQ slag up to 20% by weight on converter slag was effective to enhance the hydraulic properties of modified and quenched slag. The addition of reduced and quenched converter slag up to 20% by weight in replacement of portland cement in mixing of concrete mortar were shown higher compressive strength than 100% cement concrete mortar.

콘크리트의 내구성을 향상시키는 기존의 공법과는 다르게, 시멘트 입자 표면에 아스팔트 막(膜)을 부분적으로 형성시킨 후 카본블랙을 처리(處理)하여 콘크리트의 전반적인 내구성(耐久性)을 현격히 향상시킨 고내구성(高耐久性) 포틀랜드시멘트(ACTPC)의 수화반응(水和反應) 특성(特性)을 X-Ray, SEM, 전도열량계 등을 사용하여 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. ACTPC가 물과 접촉하면 발수성을 나타내는 아스팔트 막(膜)은 시멘트 입자(粒子)와 물의 접촉 및 시멘트 입자(粒子)로부터 각종 이온들의 용출(溶出)을 방해하여 초기(初期) 수화반응(水和反應)이 억제되지만, 카본블랙은 결정핵 역할을 하므로 일정기간이후의 수화반응(水和反應)을 촉진한다.

This paper describes a numerical method for estimating the elastic moduli of cement paste. The cement paste is modeled as a unit cell which consists of three components: the unhydrated cement grain, the gel, and the capillary pore. In the unit cell, the volume fractions of the constituents are quantified using a single kinetic function calculating the degree of hydration. The elastic moduli of cement paste are calculated from the total displacements of constituents when a uniform pressure is applied to the gel contact area. The cement paste is assumed to be a homogenous isotropic matrix. Numerical simulations were conducted through the finite element analysis of the three-dimensional periodic unit cell. The model predictions are compared with experimental results. The predicted trends are in good agreement with experimental observations. This approach and some of the results might also be relevant for other technical applications.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of aluminium sulfate on setting time and compressive strength of cement mortar as focused on formation of ettringite by the reaction between aluminium sulfate and calcium hydrate. The specific parameter was the addition ratio of aluminium sulfate to cement mortar. After specimens made by admixing aluminium of 0~7% by weight of cement, respectively, to cement mixtures, the experimental items such as setting time, compressive strength and heat of hydration in this study were carried out. As a result of this study, it is possible that aluminium sulfate could be added into cement mixture from a standpoint of increasing early compressive strength as considering the setting time and heat of hydration.

대표적인 무기계 지연제인 규불하마그네슘(MgSiF6.6H2O)을 시멘트 수화반응시 첨가했을 때의 수화반응의 지연 효과 및 특성과 수용액 이온농도 변화 고찰하기 위하여 규불화마그네슘을 시멘트 질랴의 0.3wt%에서 5wt%까지 변화시키면서 그 영향을 연구 검토하였다. 시멘트 모르타르의 flow는 지연제의 첨가에 따라 감소하는 경향이 있으며 응결 시간은 지연제의 첨가량에 따라 지연되었다. 모르타르의 압축 강도는 지연제의 첨가량에 따라 3일, 7일까지는 지연제를 첨가하지 않은 plain mortar에 비하여 약간 낮은 강도를 나타내나, 시간이 지남에 따라 회복되어 28일이 지나면 plain 모르타르와 같은 강도를 나타낸다. 규불화마그네슘이 첨가되면 수화 초기 단계에서 시멘트로부터 용출된 알카리 이온과 반응하여 K2SiF6의 생성이 일어나며 그와 동시에 Ca++와 F++와의 반응에 따라 CaF2화합물이 생성됨을 확인하였다. 이때 생성된 K2SiF6 및 CaF2생성물의 비표면적은 대단히 컸으며 이들 물질이 수화반응 초기에 미수화 시멘트시 입자 표면에 생성되어 시멘트의 수화가 지연되는 것으로 검토된다. 또한 수화초기의 수화용액의 Ca++ 및 K+이온 농도의 저하 역시 포틀랜드 수화반응속도를 지연시켜 주는 이유가된다.
