The development of new or modified concrete is an important part of existing strategies to improve performance and minimize life-cycle costs. Therefore, we investigated carbonation resistance properties of sulphoaluminate cement (SAC) concrete incorporating layered double hydroxides (LDHs). X-ray diffraction (XRD) and IR-spectroscopy were employed to characterize the component and structural changes of LDHs and cement paste before and after carbonation test. Carbonation resistance of concrete was experimentally evaluated. Finally, carbonation of Portland cement and SAC concrete was compared. The experimental results show that carbonation depth decreases remarkably with the addition of LDHs, especially the calcinated LDHs. Carbonation depth of SAC concrete is smaller than that of PC concrete regardless of curing time.展开更多

The experimental results show that the sulfate ions in cement paste are immobilized by CLDHs to reconstruct the layered structure and aggregate around CLDHs. The immobilization amount of sulfate ions by CLDHs reaches 4.74×10^-3 mol/g, while the increasing amount indicates non-linear relation with the addition of CLDHs. The incorporation of CLDHs decreases the amount of ettringite formed to limit the expansion of cement paste, which decays the sulfate reaction to enhance the sulfate resistance of concrete.展开更多

In this paper, Li Al-LDHs was obtained by a hydrothermal method. In order to investigate the effects of Li Al-LDHs on the early hydration of calcium sulphoaluminate(CSA) cement paste, compressive strength, setting time and hydration heat were tested while X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR), scaning electron microscopy(SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) analysis were employed. The results indicated that Li Al-LDHs could significantly improve the early compressive strength and shorten the setting time of calcium sulphoaluminate cement paste with 3 wt% concentration. Besides, the hydration exothermic rate within 5h was accelerated with increasing Li Al-LDHs content. Moreover, the addition of Li Al-LDHs did not result in the formation of a new phase, but increased the quantity of hydration products providing higher compressive strength, shorter setting time and denser microstructure.展开更多
