The Effects Of Curing Temperature On The Hydration Kinetics Of Plain And Fly Ash Pastes And Compressive Strength Of Corresponding Mortars With And Without Nano-Tio2 Addition., Dan Huang, Mirian Velay-Lizancos, Jan Olek
International Conference on Durability of Concrete Structures
Incorporation of fly ash in cementitious systems containing ordinary portland cement (OPC) increases their long-term strength and durability. However, replacement of cement by fly ash also reduces the heat of hydration of such systems and reduces early-age strength development. The reduced rate of strength development can increase the risk of durability problems, e.g. scaling, in cases when young concrete is exposed to low temperatures and deicing chemicals. This study investigated the potential of nano-titanium dioxide (nano-TiO2) particles to modify the hydration kinetics of fly ash pastes and compressive strength development of corresponding mortars cured under low (4°C) and …

The Influence Of Waste Glass Powder On The Chloride Binding Capacity Of Fly Ash/Cement Hardened Paste, Jh Yan, Tingyu Hao
International Conference on Durability of Concrete Structures
The potential of using waste glass powder to increase the chloride binding capacity of fly ash/cement hardened paste was investigated. When only fly ash replacing cement, the chloride binding capacity was raised within 28d when the fly ash replacement level was in the range from 30-50% by mass. But at a longer age of 60 to 90d, the binding performance was increased at the replacement level of 10-30wt%. The chloride binding capacity of glass powder-fly ash-cement system was increased by adding glass powder of 2% and 4% by mass at 7d while those at larger addition and longer age reduced. …
