Microscopy: a tool for quantitative pozzolanic activity in blended cements
| Resumo: | In the present study waste FCC catalyst has been incorporated in cement paste mortars with a 15:85 weight ratio. The microstructural evolution of the blended materials has been investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy coupled with X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy after curing times of 2, 7 and 28 days. Namely, the evolutions of the catalyst crystal structure and of the calcium content in the dispersed catalyst particles have been evaluated. |
