hydration of portland cement with red mud as mineral
Sep 20, 2021 Surface goethite FeOOH (001) hydration/hydroxylation was performed by saturating the surface iron atoms with 3 water molecules, thus recovering the bulk octahedral Fe coordination. Although (001) facets are not the major surfaces exposed in goethite nanoparticles, they are among the most reactive surface forming the most stable surface complexes. Jul 05, 2014 The cement used in this study is a commercial Portland cement (Lafarge North America Corp.) that satisfies Type I and Type II requirements set forth in ASTM American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) C-150 .The properties of Portland cement are presented in Table 1.Four iron oxides (and oxyhydroxides) were used for this study magnetite, hematite, ferrihydrite, and goethite.
