Study on the fluidity of foamed alkali-activated slag cementitious material (AASCM).

This study aims to investigate the evolution patterns of fluidity and rheological properties of AASCM under varying dosages of foaming agent and particle sizes of filling aggregate. The flow characteristics of AASCM are significantly affected by the filling aggregate's size and the foaming agent's dosage. Specifically, an increase in filling aggregate size (D(4,3) ϵ [26 μm, 69 μm]) enhances the fluidity of foamed AASCM, while an increase in foaming agent dosage reduces fluidity.

Experimental Investigation of CO-Induced Silica Gel as the Water Blocking Grout Effect of Aquifer Ions.

This study aimed to prevent water flow in microcracks and simultaneously achieve CO capture during grouting (CCG). Using sodium silicate (SS) as the primary material, the microcracks were grouted by a two-step approach. The low-initial-viscosity (5 mPa s) SS was first saturated within the microcracks followed by CO injection at 2 MPa.
