Determination of the degree of hydration of Portland cement using three different approaches: Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-BSE) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)

Determination of the degree of hydration of Portland cement using three different approaches: Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-BSE) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)

Cement paste hydration is a complex physical-chemical process. The aim of this paper is to use three approaches to determine the degree of hydration: portlandite quantification, scanning electron microscopy and bound water quantification. In order to investigate the physical-chemical and mechanical...
