Early Age Compressive Strength of Waste-based-glass-powder Magnesium Silicate Binders on Initial Carbonation Curing
Abstract
In this preliminary study, the effect of glass powder content at early age compressive strength and its effect at strength retention coefficient during water immersion period on magnesium silicate hydroxide cement pastes on carbonation curing was investigated. A magnesium oxide-rich powder with a maximum grain size of 150 μm was used, as well as, a waste glass powder with a maximum grain size of 250 μm, which was obtained from grinded flint glass bottles. Cement pastes were produced with 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 glass powder weight percentage. The specimens were compacted into cubic moulds (e = 20 mm) under 70 MPa and, subsequently, cured on accelerate carbonation chamber for 2h at >99% CO2 concentration. The compressive strength was determined 3 days after CO2, period which the specimens were preserved on room conditions (20∘C and 60%RH), and also at 3, 7 and 14 days of water immersion period. Comparison of the results obtained for different mixing compositions, as well as, different water immersion periods are discussed in this work.
