A physico-chemical model for the water vapour sorption isotherm of hardened cementitious materials
Highlights ► Proposed a physicochemical model for water retention of porous media. ► The model is established on the phase interactions at interfacial surfaces. ► The model has successfully predicted the water vapour sorption isotherm. ► It can be used for pore size analysis for both convenience and precision.
Abstract This paper reports on the recent development of a physico-chemical model for the water retention characteristic of porous media and its application to the prediction of water vapour sorption isotherm of cementitious materials. This research aims to develop a convenient method for analysis of pore size distribution. The model is used to predict the water vapour isotherm, which is compared with those using a traditional model.
