The results show that the effect of fine steel slag powder on the hydration process of Portland cement is closely related to its chemical composition, mineral phases, fineness, etc. Fine steel slag powder retards the hydration of portland cement at early age. The major reason for this phenomenon is the relative high content of MgO , MnO2, P2O5 in steel slag, and MgO solid solved in C3 S contained in steel slag.展开更多

The results indicated that the early hydration exothermic rate of C3S and C3A was obviously lowered by P205 and F- in phosphorous slag, the second peak occurring time of C3A was delayed by 0.9 h, the exothermal output of C3S was reduced by 25.04% and the time of accelerating stage was postponed by 0.86 h. The early hydration degree of C3S and C3A was also decreased. Due to the influence of P205 and F, more pores and thinner crystals can be observed in the microstructure of hardened paste and the chance of cracks was reduced.展开更多

Employing AC impedance method, we studied the hydration and hardening process of cement paste with fly ash and slag, and analyzed the influence of different hydration age, water-binder ratio and mineral admixture on the impedance parameters. Moreover, we compared the results with those by the conventional porosity testing method and X-ray diffraction method. The results showed that AC impedance could be taken as a new technology in cement and concrete research.展开更多

The experimental results show that the incorporation of nano-TiO2 can obviously promote the setting and hardening process of sulphoaluminate cement, and shorten the interval between the initial and final setting time, the hydration induction period of sulphoaluminate cement is significantly shortened and the acceleration period begins immediately, but the hydration exothermic rate at hydration stationary phase is not obviously impacted. The nano-TiO2 additives have influence on the formation rate and degree of crystallinity, but do not affect the type of hydration process. The structure of hydration products is compact at middle age, but their content and microstructure do not change展开更多

Herein, we systematically studied the debromination efficiency and mechanism of para-bromophenol(4-BP) by a recently developed UV/sulfite process. 4-BP underwent rapid degradation with the kinetics accelerated with the increasing sulfite concentration, pH(6.1–10) and temperature, whereas inhibited by dissolved oxygen and organic solvents. The apparent activation energy was estimated to be 27.8 kJ/mol. The degradation mechanism and pathways of 4-BP were explored by employing N2O and nitrate as the electron scavengers and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry to identify the intermediates. 4-BP degradation proceeded via at least two pathways including direct photolysis and hydrated electron-induced debromination. The contributions of both pathways were distinguished by quantifying the quantum yields of 4-BP via direct photolysis and hydrated electron production in the system. 4-BP could be readily completely debrominated with all the substituted Br released as Br-, and the degradation pathways were also proposed. This study would shed new light on the efficient dehalogenation of brominated aromatics by using the UV/sulfite process.展开更多

The results show that MKPC sets rapidly with less than 8% of borax, which is unfavorable to the application of MKPC on construction. Adding more than 8%(including 8%) of borax results in a secondary hydration peak for MKPC, in which the process of hydration can be divided into five stages, namely, pre-induction period, induction period, acceleration period, deceleration period and stable period. M/P ratios could not change the multi-step reactive stages but higher M/P ratios could accelerate the hydration. Borax tends to impact the formation of Mg-containing hydrated products.展开更多

文摘Hydration heat evolution, non-evaporative water, setting time and SEM tests were peorormed to investigate the effect of fine steel slag powder on the hydration process of Portland cement and its mechanism. The results show that the effect of fine steel slag powder on the hydration process of Portland cement is closely related to its chemical composition, mineral phases, fineness, etc. Fine steel slag powder retards the hydration of portland cement at early age. The major reason for this phenomenon is the relative high content of MgO , MnO2, P2O5 in steel slag, and MgO solid solved in C3 S contained in steel slag.

文摘Annular channeling has seriously troubled deep oil and gas exploitation,and the reduction of hydrostatic pressure of cement slurry in the waiting stage is considered one of the main causes of early annular channeling.However,at present,there is still a lack of sufficient research on and understanding of the relationship between the time-varying law of hydrostatic pressure of cement slurry and the early hydration process in different well sections,especially in high-temperature well sections.Therefore,in this paper,a hydrostatic pressure measurement experiment of cement slurry at low temperature(50-90℃)and high temperature(120-180℃)was carried out using a self-developed hydrostatic pressure measurement device of cement slurry.Then,the cement slurry cured at 90℃ for 1-8 h was sampled by the freeze-drying method,and XRD and TG experiments were carried out.The results show that the hydrostatic curves of low and high temperatures both show a trend of rapid increase first,then remain stable,and then decrease rapidly.With an increase in temperature,the time of the stable and falling segments of the hydrostatic curve of the cement slurry gradually decreases.By fitting the rapid pressure drop time points of cement slurry at different temperatures,it can be determined that the rapid pressure drop time and temperature show a functional relationship.The XRD and TG results of different curing times at 90℃ were analyzed.It can be seen that in the early stage of the hydration induction period,the connection between cement particles is not close,and the hydrostatic pressure of the cement slurry column remains stable.As the hydration process enters the acceleration period,the cement particles crosslink with each other through hydration products to form a bridge structure,and the hydrostatic pressure of the cement paste begins to decrease.This shows that the pressure drop time can be controlled by regulating the hydration process to provide theoretical guidance for cement slurry preparation and slurry column design in cementing engineering.

文摘Through exploring the effects of low pH on the composite system of desulfurization gypsum(DG)enhanced by melamine-formaldehyde resin(MF),it is found that the inducing of sulfate-ion,in contrast to chloride and oxalate ions,favors the longitudinal growth of the crystalline form of the hydration product,which was relatively simple and had the highest length to width(L/D)ratio.At the same time,MF can also improve L/D ratio of gypsum hydration products,which favors the formation of hydrated whiskers.Finally,in a composite system composed of hemihydrate gypsum,MF,and glass fibers,when dilute sulfuric acid was used to regulate pH=3-4,the tight binding formed among the components of the composite system compared to pH=5-6.The hydration product of gypsum adheres tightly to glass fiber surface and produces a good cross-linking and binding effect with MF.The flexural strength,compressive strength,elastic modulus,and water absorption of the desulphurized gypsum composite board is 22.7 MPa,39.8 MPa,5608 MPa,and 1.8%,respectively.

文摘In the steel slag-based mine backfill cementitious material systems,the hydration reaction mechanisms and synergistic effects of steel slag(SS),granulated blast furnace slag(GBFS),and desulfurization gypsum(DG)are crucial for performance optimization and regulation.However,existing studies have yet to fully reveal the underlying synergistic mechanisms,which limits the application and promotion of high SS content in mine backfill and low-carbon building materials.This study systematically explores the synergistic effects between various solid wastes and their regulation of the hydration process in the SS-based cementitious system through multi-scale characterization techniques.The results show that GBFS,by releasing active Si^(4+)and Al^(3+),triggers a synergistic activation effect with Ca^(2+)provided by SS,promoting the formation of C-S-H gel and ettringite,significantly optimizing the hardened paste microstructure.When the GBFS content reaches 30%,the C-S-H content increases by 40.8%,the pore size distribution improves,the proportion of large pores decreases by 68.7%,and the 90-day compressive strength increases to 5 times that of the baseline group.The sulfate activation effect of DG accelerates the hydration of silicate minerals,but excessive incorporation(>16%)can lead to microcracks caused by the expansion of AFt crystals,resulting in a strength reduction.Under the synergistic effect of 8%DG and 30%GBFS,the hydration reaction is most intense,with the peak heat release rate reaching 0.92 mW/g and the cumulative heat release amount being 240 J/g.By constructing a“SS-GBFS-DG-cement”quaternary synergistic system(mass ratio range:SS:GBFS:cement:DG=(50–62):(20–40):10:(8–12)),the matching of active components in high-content SS systems was optimized,significantly improving microstructural defects and meeting engineering application requirements.This study provides a theoretical basis for the component design and performance regulation of high-content SS-based cementitious materials.

文摘Low-carbon alkali-activated slag(AAS)is among the most common alkali-activated materials(AAMs).To further lower CO_(2) emissions and optimize the material system,we proposed a scheme of using phosphorous slag(PS)to substitute ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBS)in sodium carbonate(NC)activated slag system.we conducted a systematic study on the mechanical properties of the NC-activated slag/PS blends at normal temperature and examined the influences of different substitution amounts of phosphorus slag and NC equivalents on the performance of the material system.The hydration process was analyzed using hydration flow and chemical shrinkage.The hydration products were characterized via XRD and TGA.Moreover,the pore structure and pH value were also analyzed.When the substitution dosage of PS was not greater than 30%,the 3 d compressive strength of the systems was improved to a certain degree.However,in the medium and later periods,the compressive strength of the systems was slightly lower than that of the control group.The 90 d compressive strength of the control group 4SC-0% was 47.6 MPa,which was 4.0 MPa lower than the 28 d one of itself,presenting a strength retrogression phenomenon,while all the test groups demonstrated a continuous growth law.When the substitution dosage of PS was not more than 30%,the hydration reaction of the AAS system was facilitated,whereas when the substitution amount was 50%,the hydration of the system was conspicuously slowed down.The incorporation of phosphorous slag was capable of enhancing the volume stability of the material system.The hydration products of this system were likely to be manasseite,calcite,and C-S-(A)-H.When the incorporation amount of phosphorous slag increased,the quantity of the hydration products reduced,which might result in the generation of C-N-S-A-H.The study proposed the methodology for designing weak base-activated slag/PS.

文摘The effect of heavy metals on the properties and hydration of blast furnace slag-cement composites(BFS-CC)remain unclear.In this study,two BFS-CC(denoted as DBFS-CC and WBFS-CC)were prepared by dry and wet grinding of BFS,respectively.The effect of Cu(II)on BFS-CC’s properties and hydration was investigated by adding representative copper contaminants(CuO,CuCl_(2),and CuS)to the composites.Adding 1.0wt%CuO and 0.5wt%CuS increased the 3-d compressive strength of DBFS-CC by 14.9%and 5.7%,respectively,but suppressed the 3-d strength of WBFS-CC.This trend reversed at 28-d curing,where adding 1.5wt%CuO,2.0wt%CuCl_(2),and 1.5wt%CuS enhanced the compressive strength of WBFS-CC by 23.4%,6.2%,and 13.6%,respectively,but adversely affected the strength of DBFS-CC.For 28-d hydration,adding CuCl_(2)decreased the hydration degree of DBFS-CC but enhanced that of WBFS-CC.Adding CuO promoted the hydration degree of both composites,while adding CuS exhibited inhibitory effects.DBFS-CC immobilized CuCl_(2)better due to a higher hydration degree,while WBFS-CC immobilized CuO and CuS better due to having finer unhydrated BFS particles and a denser matrix.This study not only focuses on the Cu(II)immobilization effect but also reveals the differ-ential effects of Cu(II)species on the hydration process,providing novel insights into heavy metal interactions in BFS-CC systems and their safe disposal.

文摘The influences of different nano-SiO2(NS) contents on the mechanical properties and rheological behavior of sulfoaluminate cement(SAC) based composite materials were studied.Results show that with increasing content of NS,the apparent viscosity,and shearing strength of fresh paste gradually increase but the fluidity decreases.With a dosage of 3.0%NS,the tensile and flexural strengths of mortars at 56 days were increased by 87.0%and 84.6%,respectively,compared with that in the absence of NS,indicating that the toughness of hardened mortars is significantly improved.Besides,the exothermic peaks of hydration are obviously increased and will earlier occur,and the second and the third peaks appear 2.61 hours and 2.56 hours earlier,respectively than that in the absence of NS,and the hydration of SAC before 8 hours is accelerated.The forming mechanism of strengths was revealed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),hydration heat,X-ray diffraction(XRD) and derivative thermogravimetry(DTG).The micro-aggregate filling effect and nucleation effect at early age and weak pozzolanic effect at late age of NS make the microstructure more compact,which obviously enhances the strength of SAC mortars.

文摘Herein,micro iron ore tailings(micro-IOTs)were prepared by wet-grinding and applied to improve sulphoaluminate cement(SAC)performance.The physicochemical properties of micro-IOTs were investigated by particle size analysis,XRD,and XPS.The hydrates trait and the hydration mechanism of micro-IOTs-SAC composite were studied by XRD,TGA,MIP,and SEM.The results demonstrated that micro-IOTs with an average grain diameter of 517 nm could be obtained by wet-grinding.The setting time of SAC gradually decreased with increasing micro-IOTs content.By adding 2%micro-IOTs,the compressive strengths of SAC pastes were enhanced about 22%and 10%at 4 h and 28 d,respectively.Moreover,the addition of micro-IOTs accelerated ettringite precipitation and changed its morphology,resulting in early strength improvement of the binary system.And increased later strength by micro-IOTs was closely related to the high content of AH_(3),fine pore structure,and high hydration degree of SAC.The findings suggested one new approach to utilize iron ore tailings in cementbased materials.
