Alkali–silica reactions of mortars produced by using waste glass as fine aggregate and admixtures such as fly ash and Li2CO3

Recycled cathode ray tube and liquid crystal display glass as fine aggregate replacement in cementitious materials

“…Increasing ASR expansion by using CRT glass sand is the major shortcoming of this recycled material. However, the ASR expansion can be mitigated by using suitable amount of fly ash (FA) or slag or metakaolin (MK) or silica fume (SF) or lithium nitrate [42][43][44][45][46][47][48].…”

Waste glass as a supplementary cementitious material in concrete – Critical review of treatment methods

“…Some of the compounds which have been explored include lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3 ) [34,17] lithium hydroxide (LiOH) [35,36], lithium nitrate (LiNO 3 ) [37,38], lithium chloride (LiCl) [39] and lithium fluoride (LiF) [40]. Lithium is unique among the alkali metals because it has the smallest atomic radius to possess the single valence electron in this group, yet a comparatively large hydrated radius and polarizing power.…”

Durability of Mortar Made with Fine Glass Powdered Particles

“…There is no consensus on the influence of glass color on the performance of compounds manufactured with waste glass in the replacement of aggregates. Du and Tan [11], Dhir et al [20], and Topcu et al [25] suggest that colorless glass has higher reactivity with alkalis than green and amber glasses, whereas others show that colorless glasses promote smaller expansions. A recent research work [11] using glass particles in partial and total replacement of sand reveals that, in comparison with green glass, amber glass causes less expansion due to the alkali-silica reaction.…”
