The influence of [H2SiO4]2- from mineral admixtures on the hydration process of tricalcium silicate: a DFT study

Mineral admixtures are increasingly being employed in concrete production to replace cement, thus reducing carbon dioxide emissions. However, leaching of silicon can exert a significant influence on the cement hydration process. In this study, density functional theory was used to study the influenc...
