Resumen
Aluminio en el cemento
Área de la Ciencia:
- Ciencias de los materiales
- Química
- Geoquímica
Sus antecedentes:
- El papel del aluminio en los productos de hidratación del cemento como el hidrato de silicato de aluminato de calcio (C-A-S-H) no se entiende completamente.
- La naturaleza estructural del aluminio en C-A-S-H ha sido un enigma de larga data en la química del cemento.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para aclarar la incorporación estructural y la coordinación del aluminio dentro del hidrato de silicato de aluminato de calcio (C-A-S-H).
- Resolver el debate en torno a la existencia y asignación de la "tercera fase de hidrato de aluminato" (TAH).
Principales métodos:
- Los cálculos de los primeros principios se emplearon para predecir el comportamiento estructural del aluminio.
- La validación experimental se realizó utilizando espectroscopia avanzada de resonancia magnética nuclear (RMN) de estado sólido, incluida la RMN de 27Al y 29Si.
Principales resultados:
- Los cálculos de los primeros principios predijeron la incorporación de aluminio en los sitios de puente de las cadenas de silicatos con coordinación de seis veces en altas proporciones de Ca: Si y H2O.
- La RMN experimental de 27Al y 29Si confirmó la formación de complejos de puente de silicato [AlO2 ((OH)) 4], correlacionados con los silicatos C-A-S-H.
- Se asignó una señal de RMN estrecha de 27Al a 5 ppm a estos sitios de aluminio puente, no a una fase de TAH.
Conclusiones:
- El aluminio en C-A-S-H existe como complejos de puente de silicato [AlO2(OH) 4], estabilizados por iones de calcio.
- La "tercera fase de hidrato de aluminato" (TAH) no existe, lo que resuelve un debate importante en la ciencia del cemento.
- Este estudio aclara el papel estructural del aluminio de coordinación seis veces en los productos de hidratación del cemento.

Hydration of Cement
667
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...

Strength and Heat of Hydration
558
The hydration of cement is an exothermic reaction in which heat is generated as cement hydrates. This heat of hydration is critical to cement's strength development. The rate at which this heat is generated affects the temperature rise, with a majority of the heat being released early in the hydration process, half within the first three days, and about 75% within the first week.
The heat of hydration for each cement compound is significant; for instance, tricalcium aluminate (C3A) and...

Transition Zone
285
The transition zone in concrete is a critical area where aggregate meets cement paste, marked by a distinct porosity and weakness compared to the surrounding material. The adhesion around the aggregates is primarily due to Van Der Waals forces. The voids within this zone influence its robustness; initially, it is less durable than the surrounding bulk mortar due to larger voids. Initially, when concrete is compacted, a higher water-cement ratio near the aggregates leads to the formation of...

Ionic Crystal Structures
16.6K
Ionic crystals consist of two or more different kinds of ions that usually have different sizes. The packing of these ions into a crystal structure is more complex than the packing of metal atoms that are the same size.
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...

Sulfate Attack on Concrete
598
Sulfate attack on concrete is a deterioration process characterized by a whitish discoloration beginning at the edges and corners, accompanied by cracking and spalling. This phenomenon occurs when sulfates react with the components of hardened concrete, forming compounds like calcium sulfate and calcium sulfoaluminate which occupy more space than the substances they replace, causing the concrete to expand and disrupt.
Sulfates from sources like soil, groundwater, or industrial effluents...

Alkali Aggregate Reaction in Concrete
407
The alkali-aggregate reaction in concrete involves natural siliceous minerals in aggregates reacting with alkaline hydroxides derived from cement alkalis. This reaction forms an alkali-silica gel that absorbs water, swells, and increases in volume, which is confined by the surrounding cement paste, creating internal pressures that crack and disrupt the concrete. The extent of expansion and damage can be partly attributed to the alkali-silica reaction's osmotic hydraulic pressure and the...
