Abstract

Introduction of new, sustainable materials into the existing civil engineering standards
requires durability data for different degradation processes. Unfortunately, durability tests are
not standardized. In this work degradation process of decalcification, also called leaching, of
cement pastes was studied. The research was conducted on three different immature cement
pastes. Two Portland cements based on calcium silicate or aluminate compounds and a
cement based on calcium sulfoaluminate... More compounds were used for preparation of cement
pastes. The change in chemical composition of cement pastes and pore solutions, phase
compositions, microstructures of cement pastes and their mechanical properties (strength,
modulus of elasticity, dimensional and mass stability) were observed during a 365 days
leaching period. The results indicate no significant impact of leaching on microstructure,
modulus of elasticity, dimensional and mass stability. The observed strength decrease
correlates with the observed changes in phase and chemical composition of the cement pastes
and pore solutions. Less

Abstract (croatian)

Uvođenje novih materijala u postojeće građevinske norme zahtijeva podatke o trajnosnim
svojstvima novih materijala. Nažalost, ispitivanja trajnosnih svojstava materijala nisu
standardizirana. U ovom radu je opisano istraživanje procesa degradacije dekalcifikacijom ili
izluživanjem. Istraživanje je provedeno na tri različite nezrele cementne paste. Dva tipa
portlandskog cementa izgrađenih od kalcijevih silikata ili aluminata i cement izgrađenog od
kalcijevih sulfoaluminata korišteni su za... More izradu uzoraka cementnih pasti u ovom istraživanju.
Praćene su promjene kemijskog sastava cementnih pasta i pornih otopina, faznog sastava,
mikrostrukture cementne paste kao i mehaničkih svojstava (čvrstoće, modula elastičnosti,
promjene dimenzija i mase) u periodu izluživanja od 365 dana. Rezultati ispitivanja ne
pokazuju značajan utjecaj izluživanja na mikrostrukturu, modul elastičnosti, dimenzionalnu i
masenu stabilnosti. Uočeni pad čvrstoće povezan je s učenim promjenama faznog i kemijskog
sastava cementnih pasti i pornih otopina. Less
