Cement industry is one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions accounting
for about 7% of global CO 2 emission. As global cement demand continues to rise …

This review examines the detailed chemical insights that have been generated through 150
years of work worldwide on magnesium-based inorganic cements, with a focus on both …

Cement is the ubiquitous material upon which modern civilisation is built, providing long-
term strength, impermeability and durability for housing and infrastructure. The fundamental …

Cement industry is one of the main sources of greenhouse gases, which accounts for about
7% of global CO 2 emissions. Sequestration of CO 2 in cement-based materials is regarded …

Understanding the crystallization of cement-binding phases, from basic units to macroscopic
structures, can enhance cement performance, reduce clinker use, and lower CO2 emissions …

The use of recycled aggregates (RCAs) could further enhance the sustainability of reactive
magnesia cement (RMC) formulations, but the performances of RMC-RCA are still unknown …

Thermodynamic modelling is essential to understand the effect of binder composition on
hydrate assemblage in modern Portland composite cements and its effect on durability …

Investigations of synthetic magnesium silicate hydrate (MSH) samples have shown that MSH
aged for 1 year can exhibit variable compositions with molar Mg/Si ratios in the range 0.7≤ …

In this study, the structure of synthetic magnesium silicate hydrated phases (MSH) and the
distribution of water as a function of the Mg/Si ratio were investigated. Different analytical …

Ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS) is widely used as a partial replacement for
Portland cement or as the major component in the alkali-activated cement to give a clinker …
