The effects of Ca/Si ratio, aluminum and magnesium on the carbonation behavior of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) were investigated by using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The results showed that the Ca/Si ratio, Al/Si ratio and Mg/Si ratio had a significant influence on the structure, carbonation products and carbonation resistance of C-(M)-(A)-S-H. The mean chain length of silicate chains in C-S-H increased as the Ca/Si ratio decreased. Aluminum uptake in C-S-H increased the content of bridging silicate tetrahedron (Q2). A cross-linked structure (Q3) appeared when magnesium uptake in C-S-H. The carbonation product of C-S-H was vaterite if the Ca/Si ratio was lower than 0.87. The carbonation products of C-S-H were vaterite and calcite if the Ca/Si ratio was higher than 1.02. C-M-S-H had more polymerized units, stronger bond strength and better carbonation resistance than C-S-H.

Some high molecular weight cationic polymers, poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDC) and poly(4-vinylbenzyltrimethylammonium chloride) (PVC), have been incorporated into the calcium silicate hydrate (C–S–H) structure during precipitation of quasicrystalline C–S–H from aqueous solution. Expansion of the interlayer spacing [0.9 nm (PDC), 1.5 nm (PVC)] and a high-carbon content provided evidence that these polymers were intercalated between layers of C–S–H when Ca/Si <1.0. Intercalation characteristic properties strongly depended on both of the type of polymer and Ca/Si ratio in C–S–H. Poly(4-vinyl-1-methylpyridinium bromide) and methyl glycol chitosan (iodide) also interacted with C–S–H, probably by surface adsorption. The C–S–H/polymer complexes were examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, 29Si nuclear magnetic resonance magic angle spinning, and 13C cross-polarization, magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Mechanisms of intercalation of different kinds of polymers between the C–S–H layers are discussed.

High molecular weight anionic polymers have been incorporated into the calcium silicate hydrate (C–S–H) structure during precipitation of quasicrystalline C–S–H from aqueous solution. The anionic polymers studied were poly(methacrylic acid), poly(acrylic acid), and the sodium salt of poly(vinyl sulfonic acid). Expansion of the interlayer spacing coupled with high-carbon contents confirmed that the polymers intercalated between the layers. D-gluconic acid behaves similarly. Intercalation characteristics strongly depended on both the type of polymer and Ca/Si molar ratio of C–S–H; intercalation reached a maximum at an initial Ca/Si = 1.3 in all cases. Poly(vinyl alcohol) was the only nonionic polymer among those studied that was incorporated into C–S–H. Evidence for interlayer intercalation is less definite. The C–S–H/polymer complexes were examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, 29Si nuclear magnetic resonance magic angle spinning, and 13C cross-polarization, magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
