Determination of the Apparent Activation Energy of Concrete by Adiabatic Test

Abstract:

It is known that apparent activation energy of the binders in concrete characterizes the sensitivity of concrete hydration processes to temperature. In this paper the apparent activation energies of concretes containing different complex binders have been determined through adiabatic temperature rise test. The influence of hydration emission heat on the apparent activation energy of concrete is studied. The study results show that the apparent activation energy is decreasing with the hydration of binder stage development.
