Summary As an essential preliminary to understand the hydration of wood-cement composites, the effects of some additives on the delayed setting due to wood of an Ordinary Portland Cement have been investigated by isothermal calorimetry. With the addition of calcium chloride and activated charcoal, an increase of 50% of the total enthalpy is observed in wood-cement composites hydration, because calcium chloride mostly influences aluminate phases and activated charcoal silicate phases.

AbstractThe impact of three different organosilicon compounds: poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS), potassium methylsiliconate (MESI) and triethoxyoctylsilane (OTES), used as integral admixtures, on Portland cement hydration has been investigated by isothermal calorimetry and DTA-TG analysis. The silicon-based compounds are widely used as internal hydrophobic agents added into batch water; therefore, their effectiveness was investigated by means of capillary water absorption test. The isothermal calorimetry was used to measure the rate and amount of heat released during ordinary Portland cement hydration with integral organosilicon admixtures at 20 °C, 30 °C, 40 °C and 50 °C. It allowed to determine the activation energy as well. The results indicate that used admixtures (except MESI admixture) decrease in the rate and amount of heat release during cement hydration. In addition, it is noticeable that the addition of MESI admixture significantly prolongs the induction period and delays hydration. In contrast to MESI and OTES admixtures, PDMS-based admixture does not affect significant on the activation energy. DTA-TG analysis had shown differences between reference sample and samples containing organosilicon admixtures during thermal decomposition, in terms of the amount of moisture and bound water, as well as Ca(OH)2 or carbonates. The results presented in this paper enable a better understanding of the interactions between the organosilicon integral admixtures and the cement matrix. The study shows the effect of integral admixtures on cement hydration and thus the potential effect on the final properties of the cement-based material.

The goal of this paper provides better understanding of the effect of sodium gluconate (SG) on ordinary Portland cement (OPC) hydration behavior. Pastes’ performances of ordinary Portland cement, including setting time at 20°C and 35°C curing temperature, mechanical strength, fluidity, and zeta potential are studied. Furthermore, the effects of SG on cement hydration behaviors are investigated by the means of isothermal calorimetry measurements, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results show that SG is difficult to maintain significant retarding effect at the temperature of 35°C compared to that at the temperature of 20°C. SG is able to reduce the cement cumulative hydration heat and delay the occurrence time of heat evolution peak in a certain extent, but it has little impact on reducing the cement evolution rate peak. The effects of SG on mechanical properties and dispersion properties of cement depend on its dosages. Specifically, the positive effect occurs when the addition dosage is less than 0.15% (i.e., by cement weight), but the negative effect emerges if the addition dosages exceed this limitation. Similarly, SG plays different roles on cement hydration at different hydration periods. It inhibits the hydration of C3S and the formation of portlandite (CH) at the early hydration period. On the contrary, it promotes the C3S hydration when hydration time is beyond 1 d. Meanwhile, SG also plays different roles on cement hydration at different dosage additions. Specifically, SG promotes ettringite (AFt) formation at the dosage less than 0.06%, but it inhibits AFt formation at the dosage more than 0.06%.
