• Chloride-binding capacity of hydrotalcite in cement pastes containing dolomite and metakaolin 

      Machner, Alisa; Zajac, Maciej; Ben Haha, Mohsen; Kjellsen, Knut Ose; Geiker, Mette Rica; De Weerdt, Klaartje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      In this study, we investigated well-hydrated cement pastes containing dolomite and metakaolin cured at 38 °C or 60 °C, which were exposed to NaCl or CaCl2 solutions of various concentrations. We determined the chloride-binding ...
    • Investigation of the products of the dolomite reaction in Portland cement pastes 

      Machner, Alisa; Zajac, Maciej; Ben Haha, Mohsen; Kjellsen, Knut Ose; Geiker, Mette Rica; De Weerdt, Klaartje (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      The formation of potentially deleterious reaction products from the reaction of dolomite fines in Portland cement pastes was investigated. It was shown that the reaction of dolomite fines did not follow the commonly accepted ...
    • Limitations of the hydrotalcite formation in Portland composite cement pastes containing dolomite and metakaolin 

      Machner, Alisa; Zajac, Maciej; Ben Haha, Mohsen; Kjellsen, Knut Ose; Geiker, Mette Rica; De Weerdt, Klaartje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      This study focuses on the reaction of dolomite powder in combination with metakaolin in Portland composite cement pastes. We studied paste samples cured at 20 °C, 38 °C, and 60 °C for up to 1 year. In these systems, the ...
    • Portland metakaolin cement containing dolomite or limestone – Similarities and differences in phase assemblage and compressive strength 

      Machner, Alisa; Zajac, Maciej; Ben Haha, Mohsen; Kjellsen, Knut O.; Geiker, Mette Rica; De Weerdt, Klaartje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      The scarceness of high-quality limestone obliges the cement industry to consider alternative supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) for the production of blended cements. This study investigated the potential usage ...
    • Reactivity tests for supplementary cementitious materials: RILEM TC 267-TRM phase 1

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      A primary aim of RILEM TC 267-TRM: “Tests for Reactivity of Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs)” is to compare and evaluate the performance of conventional and novel SCM reactivity test methods across a wide range ...
    • Stability of the hydrate phase assemblage in Portland composite cements containing dolomite and metakaolin after leaching, carbonation, and chloride exposure 

      Machner, Alisa; Zajac, Maciej; Ben Haha, Mohsen; Kjellsen, Knut Ose; Geiker, Mette Rica; De Weerdt, Klaartje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      To reduce CO2 emissions during the production of cement and to cope with increasing demands for concrete, and thereby cement, the cement industry needs to identify new supplementary cementitious materials. These new composite ...
