The rapid development of infrastructure in the world has caused huge demand for Portland cement, which results in environmental problems such as enormous energy consumption and CO 2 emissions (8.7 % of global output) [1].Except for cement replacement materials such as fly ash [2] and blast furnace slag [3] to …



1. Introduction. To reduce CO 2 emissions and the consumption of natural raw materials in cement production, supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) have been developed over the past decade [[1], [2], [3], [4]].Limestone calcined clay cement (LC 3) is a promising low-carbon alternative for Ordinary Portland cement (OPC), which can …







To improve the grindability of LC 3, grinding aids should be introduced to guarantee homogeneous comminution, thereby eliminating insufficient grinding of the clinker (the hardest ingredient) while overgrinding the limestone and calcined clay. Alkanolamines are one of the popular grinding chemicals formulated in commercial …



In the field of TBC, a noteworthy development is the introduction of limestone calcined clay cement (LC3), which replaces traditional clinker with calcined clay/metakaolin (CC/MK) and limestone powder (LSP) (Antoni et al., 2012a, Antoni et al., 2012b).LC3's notable feature lies in its ability to reduce clinker consumption by nearly 50 …



2.1 Materials. The LC 3 blends in this study were prepared in the laboratory by combining a PC clinker (Baştaş Cement Plant, Ankara), limestone and gypsum (Votorantim Hasanoğlan Cement Plant, Ankara), and kaolinitic clay from Balıkesir (used after calcining). The (text{C}overline{text{S}}text{A }) clinker was also prepared in the …



In fact, at that age, the compressive strength of blended cement mortar with 50 wt.% fine NFM slag was similar to that of blended cement mortar with only 30 wt.% of less fine slag. Since the grinding of NFM slags is known to be energy intensive and expensive, the efficacy of several alkanolamines as grinding aids was investigated.









Limestone-calcined clay as a new economic and green blend cement, typically made up of 15% limestone, 30% calcined clay, 5% gypsum, and 50% clinker [37], was found to develop very similar mechanical performance to the control OPC [41] and demonstrated remarkable properties at the microstructural scale including porosity …



This project explores the use of grinding aids to control the resulting particle-size distribution of calcined clay and limestone. It was observed that after grinding, calcined clays exhibit a strongly bimodal particle-size distribution, where the clay minerals concentrate mainly in the finer particle population.





Limestone Calcined Clay Cements (LC 3) are ternary cements that utilise the synergy of calcined clay and limestone in order to achieve strength development similar to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) even at clinker factors as low as 40% to 50% [].This cement is being studied and developed in an international collaboration …

Limited in-depth literature reviews have been conducted on the history, synthesis, hydration kinetics, and carbon footprint of limestone calcined clay cement (LC 3).This review paper extensively surveys, for the first time, the impact of various critical parameters on the performance of LC 3 paste, mortar, and concrete.

Raw materials chemistry. Cement manufacture requires a source of calcium, such as CaCO 3 or CaMg (CO 3) 2, which comprises almost 80–90% of the total and the rest is iron oxide (Fe 2 O 3, Fe 3 O 4), quartz (SiO 2), and clay/bauxite (Al-silicates) (Aïtcin and Flatt Citation 2015; Hewlett Citation 2003; Peray and Waddell Citation 1986).Traces …

performance of cement. A blend of limestone calcined clay pozzolan (LCCP) was produced by grinding calcined clay and limestone in a ratio of 2:1 with 2% gypsum. Blends with cement replacement level of 0, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 50% using LCCP were cast. The effect of LCCP on the hydration of cement was investigated using isothermal …

In this study, a thermodynamic and kinetics simulation is used to extract the kinetics diagrams of ettringite (as the main product of sulfate attack) to predict the kinetics behavior of limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) with various cement replacement percentages and the ratio of calcined clay to cement replacement (CC/CC + L) during …

1. Introduction. Grinding aids, first introduced into cement manufacturing in 1930 [], are surface-active substances that facilitate particle comminution during the milling process.In the production of Portland cement, grinding aids are added in small amounts in the range of 0.01 to 0.10% by weight of cement, according to the PN-EN 197-1 standard [].







Grinding aids are commonly used in cement manufacture to reduce electrostatic forces between powder particles and reduce agglomeration. Alkanolamines are known to also influence the hydration of the aluminate phases in cement. This study assessed the effect of TEA, TIPA and DEIPA addition on the hydration of LC3 systems. It was observed that …

Normally, grinding aids are added in a 15% concentrated solution (1:7 grinding aid to water – helps the dispersal of grinding aid in mill), at approximately 2-2.5 Lb./Ton for medium fineness and 3-4 Lb./Ton for high fineness cement.
