Formation of Tobermorite at Different Materials Composition of Aerated Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

For the production of quality autoclaved aerated concrete product is necessary to know the chemical composition of raw materials and with regard to that optimize the recipe. This paper deals with the verification of the influence raw materials mixture ́s chemical composition, the reactivity of the silica source and the molar ratio C/S on the shape and amount of tobermorite crystals in autoclaved aerated concrete.
