  1. 1. Shrinkage and Related Properties of Alkali-Activated Binders Based on High MgO Blast Furnace Slag

    Författare :Abeer Humad; Andrzej Cwirzen; John L. Provis; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Andrzej Garbacz; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Alkali-activated slag; alkali-activated materials; high-MgO blast furnace slag; shrinkage; creep; carbonation; strength; heat curing; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Sammanfattning : Concrete is the second most used material in the world just after water. A drawback is that it is mostly based on Portland cement, which has an extremely high carbon footprint reaching a staggering 900 kg/tonne. The carbon dioxide emissions related to the production of the Portland cement accounts for nearly 8 % of the global total. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Sensing capability of nanomodified Portland cement composites

    Författare :Thanyarat Buasiri; Andrzej Cwirzen; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Jan Olek; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sensing cementitious composites; nanomodified Portland cement; Carbon nanofibers; CNF; piezoresistive materials; sensor; cement-based sensor; self-monitoring; sensing capability; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Sammanfattning : Sensing cement-based composites refer to composites that have sensing functionality that can measure several physical and chemical parameters. Sensing cement-based composites are fabricated by incorporating some functional fillers, such as conductive fibers (CFs), carbon nanofibers (CNFs), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and graphene, into conventional concrete.

  5. 4. Self-Healing Concrete

    Författare :Magdalena Rajczakowska; Andrzej Cwirzen; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Hans Hedlund; Erik Schlangen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cementitious materials; self-healing; exposure; fly ash; calcite; C-S-H; cracking; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Sammanfattning : Concrete is a brittle material prone to cracking due to its low tensile strength. Crack repairs are not only expensive and time-consuming but also increase the carbon footprint. Designing a novel concrete material possessing the ability to self-repair cracks would enhance its sustainability. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Stimulated autogenous self-healing of mechanically and thermally cracked cementitious materials

    Författare :Magdalena Rajczakowska; Andrzej Cwirzen; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Hans Hedlund; Erik Schlangen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Sammanfattning : It is estimated that each year, approximately 8 billion cubic meters of concrete are produced worldwide, a vast number comparable to 1 m3 per person, making the construction industry a major contributor to overall global CO2 emissions. Throughout the manufacturing process of the most common cement binder, ordinary Portland cement (OPC), CO2 emissions reach 842 kg per ton of clinker produced. LÄS MER
