Abstract EN

The aim of this work is to better understand the physical and chemical phenomena involved in hydrated mix (clinker + addition) during the natural carbonation process, to characterize cement with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) under various curing environment.

The prepared cement pastes were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis.

The results showed a considerable influence of the environment on the properties of mortars and cement and a perfect correlation between compressive strength, natural carbonation, nonevaporable water, and portlandite content.

It was observed that the reduction of the curing period makes the mortars more sensitive.

The kinetics of process was evaluated from Ca(OH)2 content and nonevaporable water contained in mortars.

These two parameters reflect the hydration progress of the water/cement ratio studied.

The weight loss due to Ca(OH)2 decomposition, calculated by DTA/TG analysis, shows the effect of the pozzolanic reaction and the natural carbonation.

The supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) play a considerable role in the slowing down of the aggression environment.
