The properties and curing mechanism of leaded samples solidified with phosphorous-slag-based cementitious pastes are studied. The compressive strength, pH of percolate, and lead-ion concentrations of leaded samples stabilized with the phosphorous-slag-based cementitious pastes and cement were analyzed. Results confirmed that the phosphorous-slag-based cementitious paste performed much better than cement in terms of solidifying lead. The cured form of lead with phosphorous-slag-based cementitious pastes had higher compressive strength, lower lead leaching, and smaller change in pH. Higher lead content corresponded with more obvious advantagees of phosphorus-slag-based cementitious pastes and lower risk of environmental pollution. By means of X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and Energy Dispersive Spectrometer-Scanning Electron Microscope (EDS-SEM) analyses, we found that the hydration of phosphorus-slag-based cementitious pastes produced hydrated calcium silicate gels, ettringite and other minerals with large specific surface areas, as well as some leaded products that can combine with lead ions to form chemically stable leaded products. This finding well explained the high performance of phosphorus-slag-based cementitious pastes in terms of lead solidification and stabilization.

Alite calcium sulfoaluminate (ACSA) cement is an innovative and environmentally friendly cement compared to ordinary Portland cement (OPC). The synthesis and hydration of ACSA clinkers doped with gradient sulfur were investigated. The clinker compositions and hydrated pastes were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), isothermal calorimetry, mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to analyze its mineral contents, hydration products, heat release, pore structure, and microstructure.

In order to explore the intrinsic relationship between the expansion and strength of cementitious materials with CaO-based expansion agent (CEA), the effects of CEA on the expansion rate, strength, microstructure, and hydration products of cement paste were studied. The interaction mechanism between the expansion rate and compressive strength of cement paste with CEA was discussed. The results show that the addition of CEA increases the expansion rate, porosity, and hydration degree of cement paste while reducing the compactness and compressive strength of cement paste.

Internal curing is a process based on the addition of materials that function as water reservoirs in cementitious media. Superabsorbent hydrogels are an alternative that can be used as an internal curing agent, as they have the ability to absorb and release water in a controlled manner. In the present work, superabsorbent hydrogels based on crosslinked polyacrylamide in the presence of starch and sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) were developed and applied to mortars as an internal curing agent.

The roles of dielectric materials in adjusting the electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption performance of an EMW absorber are as crucial as the EMW absorbents. The commonly used cement-based materials, such as mortar, are typical composites of multiple dielectric materials, such as quartz sand and air in the pores. This study investigates the EMW-absorption performances within the frequency range of 2 GHz to 18 GHz of cement paste and mortar samples with different sand-to-cement ratios (S/C), water-to-cement ratios (W/C), and thicknesses.

Cement-based 3D printing provides an opportunity to create cement-based elements with a hierarchy of structures and patterns that are not easily achievable using traditional casting techniques, thereby providing new possibilities for improving thermal control and energy storage in cement-based materials. In this study, the influence of internal architecture and ink formulation on the thermal behavior of 3D-printed cement composite beams was investigated using infrared thermal imaging and a conceptual one-dimensional heat transfer model based on cooling fins in convective media. Three-dimensional printed beams with rectilinear, three-dimensional honeycomb, and Archimedean chord infill patterns and cement ink formulations with and without 5% halloysite nanoclay were exposed to a heating source at one end.
