Alternative Binders
Alternative or non‐traditional cements form a large group of binders, significantly differing from Portland cement and from each other by the composition and type of the raw materials, the nature of hardening products, the mechanism of hardened cement paste formation, research experience, adoption and application. Most alternative cements are special cements developed as a result of searching for ways to eliminate some of the disadvantages of Portland cement and/or development of special binders for special applications other than building. Study of binding mechanisms of toxic and radioactive waste components results in data useful for prediction of their retention for a long time, durability of alternative cement‐based matrices, and technological adoption. This chapter considers the most effective alternative binders for immobilization of toxic and radioactive wastes: calcium aluminate cements, calcium sulphoaluminate cements, phosphate cements and alkali‐activated cements (AACs).
