Hydration of Cement01:24

Hydration of Cement

2.0K
Hydration of cement is a chemical reaction between cement particles and water. This process occurs primarily through two mechanisms: through-solution and topochemical. In the through-solution process, anhydrous compounds dissolve into their constituents, hydrates form in the solution, and then precipitate from the supersaturated solution. The topochemical process involves solid-state reactions at the cement particle surface. The through-solution process dominates the topochemical process at the...

Types of Cement II

Portland blast-furnace cement is made by blending Portland cement clinker with granulated blast-furnace slag, which accounts for 25 to 65 percent of the cement's weight. Despite its similarities to ordinary Portland (Type I) cement in terms of fineness and setting times, its early strength is lower, though it achieves comparable strength later on. It's particularly suited for mass concrete structures and marine environments due to its lower heat of hydration and superior sulfate...

Porosity in Cement Paste

626
The porosity of concrete is a measure of the void spaces within its structure. These spaces impact its strength and durability significantly. When water and cement interact, a chemical reaction called hydration creates a semi-solid paste. This paste includes combined water, making up approximately 23% of the cement's dry mass, and gel water, which fills minuscule voids known as gel pores, accounting for about 28% of the cement gel volume.
The balance of water to cement in the mix is...

Area of Science:

  • Dental Materials Science
  • Restorative Dentistry

Background:

  • Advancements in restorative materials necessitate improved adhesive and cementation systems.
  • Dental cements face high demands for adhesion, mechanical strength, and esthetics.
  • No single dental cement perfectly meets all clinical requirements.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide literature-based clinical recommendations for cement selection in prosthodontic restorations.
  • To guide clinicians in choosing appropriate dental cements based on the cementation substrate.
  • To address the challenges clinicians face with the variety of available cementation materials.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of adhesive systems and cementation materials.
  • Analysis of clinical demands on dental cements.
  • Evaluation of polymer-based cements' properties and versatility.

Main Results:

  • Polymer-based cements offer improved mechanical and esthetic properties.
  • Selection of dental cement depends heavily on the substrate and restoration material.
  • Individualized considerations are necessary due to varying abutment properties.

Conclusions:

  • Clinicians require clear, evidence-based guidance for dental cement selection.
  • Tailoring cement choice to specific clinical situations, especially the substrate, is essential.
  • Ongoing research in dental materials aims to overcome existing limitations in cement performance.
