Thermal analysis of ternary gypsum-based binders stored in different environments

Original language description

Although gypsum belongs to the low-energy environmentally friendly binders, its wider applications in building constructions are limited due to the negative effect of moisture on its mechanical properties. When calcined gypsum (CaSO4 center dot 1/2H(2)O) transforms into its hydrated form (CaSO4 center dot 2H(2)O), it is partially soluble in water and it has a relatively low strength. This problem can be resolved when gypsum is used as a part of binary or ternary binders. In this paper, a system consisting of calcined gypsum, lime, and silica fume is presented as a functional solution for a wider utilization of gypsum in wet environments. For this purpose, the newly designed materials were stored in different environments (laboratory conditions in air or water) up to 182 days. The effect of silica fume on the hydration process and the growth of the main products is evaluated by using differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry in the temperature range from 25 to 1000 A degrees C with a heating rate of 5 A degrees C min(-1) in an argon atmosphere. The carbonation level of studied materials is also evaluated. Besides this, the information about the thermal stability of studied materials is provided. These results are supported by evolved gas analysis, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. The basic physical and mechanical properties are determined to provide more detailed information about the behavior of the designed materials under various conditions at selected days of hydration. The addition of silica fume to the gypsum-lime system activates the pozzolanic reaction of the analyzed pastes, which is proved by the presence of the CSH phase and by the consumption of portlandite in the mixtures. Wet environment speeds up the hydration processes and prevents samples from carbonation.
