Characterization of eco-substituted cement containing waste ground calcined clay brick
This paper discusses the potentialities of using waste bricks as a partial replacement of clinker in blended cement. The blended cements are produced by grinding and mixing clinker, waste brick and gypsum. Eight mixtures containing 0 to 35% of bricks as a clinker replacement are prepared and characterized. Partially replacing clinker by brick results in early strength, but are lower than that of the reference. However, at 90 days, the strengths are greater than that reference. The setting times and the shrinkages were reduced. Blended cement has been formulated with optimal composition of 10% of waste brick. The microstructure of the paste was studied using scanning electron microscopy and the evolution of cement hydration was studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It was concluded that the binder with 10% of brick shows a dense and homogeneous particles distribution. The pozzolanic reaction occurs through the decreases of the amorphous silica during hydration.
