Low-heat portland cement (LHC), characterized by high C 2 S and low C 3 A content, is an
environmentally friendly cement with energy saving and low carbon emission. Much …

Belite cements, BCs, containing mainly belite, alite and calcium aluminates, are currently
used as low heat cements. These binders produce high amounts of C–S–H gel and have …

Cement hydration is crucial for the strength development of cement-based materials;
however, the mechanism that underlies this complex reaction remains poorly understood at …

Low heat Portland (LHP) cement has been widely used in hydraulic projects in China, while
the relatively low early strength limits its further application in engineering. In this study, the …

The hydrating active mineral in the modified magnesium slag-based (MMS-based)
backfilling material is mainly β-phase dicalcium silicate characterized with slow speed of …

In this research, the electrolytic manganese residue (EMR) based belite-ye'elimite-ferrite (E-
BYF) clinker composed of 51.6% belite, 25.6% iron phase, 15.8% ye'elimite and 6.5% over …

Currently, low heat Portland (LHP) cement is widely used in mass concrete structures. The
magnesia expansion agent (MgO) can be adopted to reduce the shrinkage of conventional …

Municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) fly ash is a residue of municipal solid waste
incineration whose recycling is currently a worldwide problem. Therefore, considerable …

The present study investigates the influence of various curing schemes on the strength and
microstructural evolution of belite-rich cement (BRC) mortar. The sets of BRC mortar were …

The utilization of low heat Portland (LHP) cement is considered to be one of the most
effective methods to decrease the thermal stresses and cracking risk in the dam concrete …
