Abstract:This work focuses on the carbonation reaction of calcium silicate hydrates (CaO)(SiO 2 )(H 2 O) (CSH) powders synthesized by an aqueous process using fluorosilicic acid waste and lime as main reactants. We investigated whether these CSH could constitute a secondary raw material to produce building materials that harden at low temperature by reaction with CO 2 , according to a process that is commonly based on the use of minerals such as natural wollastonite (CaSiO 3 ). CSH and wollastonite powders were placed … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
