Composition and microstructural changes of cement pastes upon heating, as studied by neutron diffraction
Composition and microstructure changes of cement pastes when heating until 620 degree C and cooling afterwards have been monitored on site by neutron diffraction. The parameters involved in the study have been the heating ramp, the state of the sample (in block or ground) and the type of cement. The residual state of the samples has also been studied by mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) and thermogravimetry analysis (TGA). As a result, it has been possible to monitor the major features of the experiments, i.e., the phases existence domains and their growing and decaying for portlandite, ettringite, calcite, lime, larnite, and hydrated calcium silicate (CSH gel), as well as the loss of free and bounded water during the experiments. In addition, the different residual phases in the matrix depending on the experimental set up have been established, which might have a significant influence in the durability of a concrete after a fire.
