The effect of nanoanatase titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) powder on early‐age hydration kinetics tricalcium silicate (C 3 S) was investigated. Isothermal calorimetry performed C S pastes with 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% TiO addition by weight, two mathematical models—the Avrami (or JMAK) model the boundary nucleation (BN model)—were fitted to data. For all mixes, increased peak reaction rate, degree at 12 24 h. rate 10% were accelerated, while 5% paste delayed, lengthening induction period as compared...
Two metakaolins, with similar mineralogical composition but which vary in their surface area (11.1 versus 25.4m2∕g), were evaluated for use as supplementary cementitious materials through measurements of workability, setting time, strength, elastic modulus, heat evolution, calcium hydroxide (CH) content, and area. Compressive flexural strength concrete greater increased at a faster rate when the finer metakaolin was used, expected. The addition early age (i.e., 1–3days) by much 60%. effect...
