Abstract  

Thermogravimetric (TG) analysis was applied to the characterisation of the pozzolanic reaction in mortars containing the supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) pitchstone fines (PF) and fly ash (FA) as partial replacements for Portland cement (PC). TG analysis was used to determine the proportion of calcium hydroxide (CH) present from the hydration of the PC based on the dehydroxylation of the CH present in the blended PC-SCM mortars. The consumption of CH indicated that both SCMs underwent the pozzolanic reaction and that PF was found to compare favourably in its pozzolanic reactivity of FA, the industry and globally accepted standard artificial pozzolan.

as in control specimens. Such results lead to an important conclusion that, the thermal resistance found in specimens containing V was due to its insulation character rather than its pozzolanic reactivity. However, at 600 and 800 °C, in XRD of A2, new

Summary  

The pozzolanic reactivity of thermally treated zeolites was studied on the basis of the Chapelle test combined with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform (FTIR) spectroscopy, as well as thermogravimetric analysis (TG/DTG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The raw zeolite samples are from the Pentalofos area, Thrace, NE Greece. Their main mineral constituent is 'heulandite type-II', an intermediate type of the heulandite-clinoptilolite isomorphous series. Calcination of the samples was carried out up to 400, 500, 600, 700 and 1000C for 15 h. The changes were recorded using the above methods. The deformation of the zeolite crystal lattice starts at about 400C and proceeds as the temperature of thermal treatment rises. The thermal treatment of zeolite at 400C improves its pozzolanic reactivity and accelerates the reaction with Ca(OH)2.

glass particles with sizes below 300 μm, an ASR gel is less likely to be produced than with aggregate-sized particles, while particle sizes below 75 μm often demonstrate a pozzolanic reactivity according to the literature [ 10 , 13 , 18 ]. This general
