Zhang, Y. (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Liu, C. (author), Copuroglu, Oguzhan (author)In this paper, the authors characterized two types of zonation within slag rims in aged alkali-activated slag (AAS) systems through SEM and TEM technology. These two elemental zonation were closely related to the pore structure of AAS pastes, thus providing strong implication for the transport- and durability-related performance of AAS...journal article 2023

Liu, C. (author), Liang, X. (author), Chen, Y. (author), Li, Z. (author), Ye, G. (author)In this study, the impacts of tap water immersion on the pore solution, phase assemblages, gel chemistry and structure, and pore structure of alkali-activated slag (AAS) pastes were studied. AAS degrades under such condition and the potential mechanisms can be concluded as lower reaction rates, gel decomposition and carbonation. The leaching...journal article 2023

Xu, Yaowen (author), Liang, X. (author), Wan, Chaojun (author), Yang, Hongyu (author), Feng, Xiaming (author)This paper develops a kind of molded disc samples to investigate the carbonation and related behaviors of hardened cement pastes under different previous hydration degrees. Weight and length changes of cement pastes over time are monitored during a multistep process including carbonation, drying, rewetting, and redrying. The combination of X...journal article 2023

Bezemer, H.J. (author), Awasthy, N. (author), Lukovic, M. (author)A promising solution for reducing the carbon footprint of concrete is the use of alkali-activated concretes (AAC). Before this material can be widely applied, its long-term behaviour needs to be understood, especially since some studies reported a decrease of mechanical properties over time. Similarly, Prinsse et al. reported decreasing...book chapter 2023

(author), Cyr, Martin (author), Dombrowski-Daube, Katja (author), Geddes, Dan (author), Nedeljković, Marija (author)The current ability to predict the carbonation resistance of alkali-activated materials (AAMs) is incomplete, partly because of widely varying AAM chemistries and variable testing conditions. To identify general correlations between mix design parameters and the carbonation rate of AAMs, RILEM TC 281-CCC Working Group 6 compiled and analysed...book chapter 2023

Zhang, Y. (author)In order to compensate the limited availability of raw material resources and meet the growing demand for decreasing CO2 emissions during cement and concrete productions, a practical method is to decrease the clinker content in cement. This strategy mainly consists of substituting a part of the clinker with supplementary cementitious materials ...doctoral thesis 2022

Zhang, Y. (author), Liang, M. (author), Gan, Y. (author), Copuroglu, Oguzhan (author)This paper reports the carbonation characteristics of a cement-slag system exposed to accelerated carbonation testing, and its improved carbonation resistance with the increasing MgO content in blast furnace slag, in which hydrotalcite-like phase plays a key role. Our research showed that the hydrotalcite-like phase started to carbonate upon...journal article 2022

(author), Gruyaert, Elke (author)Many (inter)national standards exist to evaluate the resistance of mortar and concrete to carbonation. When a carbonation coefficient is used for performance comparison of mixtures or service life prediction, the applied boundary conditions during curing, preconditioning and carbonation play a crucial role, specifically when using latent...journal article 2022

Bastidas-Arteaga, E. (author), Rianna, G. (author), Gervasio, H. (author), Nogal Macho, M. (author)The built environment is already facing severe consequences related to climate change. Considering the durability of structures, the increase of carbon-dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) concentration and changes on temperature and relative humidity may accelerate carbonation-induced corrosion, thus affecting the service life of reinforced concrete...journal article 2022

Seetharam, S.C. (author), Kottititum, B (author), Maes, N. (author), Srinophakun, T. (author)Accelerated carbonation curing of cellulose fiber-cement composites is known to improve their durability in the form of decreased porosity and increased mechanical properties. In addition, because carbonation results in a decrease in the alkalinity of cement paste, it makes cement less aggressive towards the cellulose fibers. The properties of...conference paper 2021

Georget, Fabien (author), Wilson, William (author), Soja, Wioletta (author), Zheng, Junjie (author), Scrivener, Karen (author)Quantitative predictions for durability issues are necessary to adapt the formulations of cement blends with novel supplementary cementitious materials. These predictions are usually carried out with reactive transport models which are solved at the macroscopic scale. Upscaling laws are necessary to ensure that effective transport properties...conference paper 2021

Zhang, H. (author), Romero Rodriguez, C. (author), Dong, H. (author), Gan, Y. (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Carbonation of hydrated cement paste (HCP) causes numerous chemo-mechanical changes in the microstructure, e.g., porosity, strength, elastic modulus, and permeability, which have a significant influence on the durability of concrete structures. Due to its complexity, much is still not understood about the process of carbonation of HCP. The...journal article 2020
