Mechanical and mineralogical properties of natural hydraulic lime-metakaolin mortars in different curing conditions
This paper investigates the mechanical and mineralogical characteristics of natural hydraulic lime NHL3.5 (NHL) mortars with different% of lime replacement by metakaolin (MK) under different laboratory and natural marine curing conditions. Tests were conducted at different curing ages, using compressive and flexural strength tests and thermogravimetric and X-ray diffraction techniques. NHL mortars cured at high humidity levels in natural and artificial environments present interesting results and some could be used in old masonries repair. The incorporation of MK improves the NHL mortars strength, being this increase mostly associated to the pozzolanic reaction. ; The authors wish to acknowledge the Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT) for the financial support under project METACAL (PTDC/ECM/100431/2008) and to the companies SECIL and IMERYS for the supply of NHL3,5 and metakaolin used in this work. ; 8 ; 6 ; pp 287–294 ; 51 ; DM/NMM ; Construction and Building Materials
