About this document

Thermal Analysis of Portlandite in Cement by hamed is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Thermal analysis techniques like thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and derivative thermogravimetric analysis (DTG) were used to study the effect of temperature on a cement paste heated to temperatures from 100°C to 800°C. The TGA and DTG curves showed weight losses corresponding to the decomposition of hydrates like calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) from 100-200°C, the dehydroxylation of portlandite from 450-500°C, and the decarbonation of calcium carbonate at 750°C. Even though the portlandite formation duri
