Effects of temperature on the atomic structure of synthetic calcium–silicate–deuterate gels: A neutron pair distribution function investigation

Journal Article White, Claire E., E-mail: whitece@princeton.edu ; Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment, Princeton University, Princeton - Cement and Concrete Research

Due to the nanocrystallinity of the calcium–silicate–hydrate (C–S–H) gel in ordinary Portland cement-based paste combined with the presence of nanoscale heterogeneities such as varying calcium-to-silicon ratios and incorporation of aluminum in the structure, standard characterization techniques fail to fully capture the complex atomic structure and nanoscale morphology of this important binder phase. Here, neutron pair distribution function (PDF) analysis is applied to a range of deuterated C–S–H gels with varying Ca/Si ratios (denoted C–S–D). In situ temperature measurements reveal that the local atomic bonding environments in C–S–D gel undergo large structural rearrangements due to exposure to elevated temperature (above ~more »« less

In situ X-ray pair distribution function analysis of accelerated carbonation of a synthetic calcium-silicate-hydrate gel

Journal Article Morandeau, Antoine E. ; White, Claire E. - J. Mater. Chem. A

Calcium–silicate–hydrate (C–S–H) gel is the main binder component in hydrated ordinary Portland cement (OPC) paste, and is known to play a crucial role in the carbonation of cementitious materials, especially for more sustainable alternatives containing supplementary cementitious materials. However, the exact atomic structural changes that occur during carbonation of C–S–H gel remain unknown. Here, we investigate the local atomic structural changes that occur during carbonation of a synthetic calcium–silicate–hydrate gel exposed to pure CO₂ vapour, using in situ X-ray total scattering measurements and subsequent pair distribution function (PDF) analysis. By analysing both the reciprocal and real-space scattering data as themore »« less

{sup 17}O MAS NMR investigation of the structure of calcium silicate hydrate gel

Journal Article Cong, X ; Kirkpatrick, R J - Journal of the American Ceramic Society

This paper presents the results of a systematic investigation of the structure of hydrothermally synthesized calcium silicate hydrate gel using {sup 17}O MAS NMR at 11.7 T and MAS frequencies up to 12 kHz. The results support the previously proposed defect-tobermorite structural model for C-S-H. At least six O-sites have been identified, two NBO, BO, Ca-OH, Si-OH, and H{sub 2}O. The compositional variation of the relative intensities of the signal for different sites measured by {sup 17}O NMR is consistent with that calculated from {sup 29}Si NMR results for the same samples. The chemical shifts of the NBO and BOmore »« less
