A systematic study was performed to learn the exact existence form and doping behaviors of
magnesium in ordinary Portland cement (OPC) clinker. Our results show that about 1.3 wt …

Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) clinker mainly consist four minerals, tricalcium silicate (C 3
S), dicalcium silicate (C 2 S,), tricalcium aluminate (C 3 A), and tetracalcium aluminoferrite …

This work investigated the influence of seawater on the growth rate, morphology, and
properties of ettringite (AFt). The results showed that, in the absence of calcium hydroxide …

The doping mechanism of Ba in sulfoaluminate cement (SAC) clinker was systematically
studied. Results from density functional theoretical simulations, backscattered electron …

Low-temperature cement manufacturing has garnered academic and industrial attention for
its low environmental footprints. However, the sluggish hydration kinetics of the resultant …

Thermal treatment is a promising treatment technology of municipal solid waste incineration
(MSWI) fly ash because of its detoxication and volume reduction. However, the relationship …

A Portland cement clinker containing high content of ferrite phase (> 18%) is synthesized
with high fractions (60 mass%) of solid wastes, including steel slag, copper tailing, coal …

Tetracalcium aluminoferrite is one of the main phases of Portland cement, the dissolution
characteristics of which however have not been fully revealed. This work adopted first …

Utilizing sewage sludge (SS) to calcinate sulphoaluminate cement (SAC) is a promising
technology for low-carbon transition of cement industry, but the unclear effects of SS …

The production of cement clinker from solid waste generated by industrial development is a
valid way to reduce the exploitation of natural resources and protect the environment. This …
