“…X-ray diffraction, 10,14 optical microscopy, 14,15 and scanning electron microscopy 14,15 results indicate that CAOXY forms with CaCl 2 and MgCl 2 but not with NaCl. Pastes exposed to NaCl did not show any interaction with CH or any chemical deterioration, 10 that cementitious materials exposed to CaCl 2 show large decreases in compressive strength, 9,10 but those exposed to NaCl 10 do not. Measurements of dynamic modulus using a longitudinal guarded comparative calorimeter coupled with acoustic emission show reductions in dynamic modulus with CaCl 2 and MgCl 2 but not with NaCl.…”
