In 3D concrete , fast structuration is a prerequisite for ideal buildability. This paper aims to study the impact of inorganic additives, i.e., CaCl 2 and gypsum, on structural build-up and very early-age hydration of limestone-calcined clay-cement (LC3) pastes within the first 70–80 min. Results show that, increasing the dosage of CaCl 2 or gypsum can accelerate …

Portland limestone cement provides advantages for performance and controlled strength of cement and concrete, in addition to lowering production costs and CO2 emissions. …
Second, regarding limestone, Tu et al. [9] found that limestone powder could increase the degree of carbonation of cement pastes during carbonation curing. Phung et al. [10] reported that limestone provided nucleation sites for the precipitation of calcium carbonates during carbonation curing. Shao et al. [11] established that Portland limestone cement had a high …
This research paper examines the effects of partial substitution of Portland cement clinker with limestone addition on the physical and chemical properties of cement paste and hardened mortar in ...
Cement is an ingredient in concrete/shotcrete. Cement additives are used during the manufacture of cementious material. Admixtures are an ingredient in concrete/shotcrete as well. ... iron, and aluminum, among others. Some of the additional ingredients that make up cement might include limestone, chalk, shells, or mile along with slate, clay ...
To increase pro tability, producers are seeking to reduce the clinker factor of cement and use other materials such as limestone to produce blended cements. While this presents technical …
CaCO 3 (or limestone) is widely regarded as an additive in cementitious systems [21, 22]. The main functions of limestone powder in cementitious systems include filling, nucleation, and …
Tri-isopropanolamine is especially powerful as a strength-enhancing additive for limestone cements. It reduces the porosity and improves the cement strength by incorporating calcium carbonate into the structure of the cementitious binder. ... Cement additives have a positive influence on cement performance characteristics by design. Dry ...
Required water:cement ratio to achieve a slump of 60 to 70 mm in concretes made with different cements. Cement E contained a limestone not conforming to the EN 197-1 criteria.
In order to find a best chemical additive for shear reduction in limestone slurry the influence of various doses of additives in relation to three arbitrary chosen solids concentrations of slurry, equals 30%, 40% and 50% by mass, is demonstrated. rheological behaviours of limestone slurry have been investigated using rotational viscometer.
Cement additives also improve mill production, particle size distribution and powder flowability. Figure 2 shows the effect of a grinding aid on the agglomeration of the ... of metakaolin and limestone. Cement and Concrete Research. 42, 2012, pp 1579-1589. NZS 3122:2009: Specification for Portland and blended cements (General and special purpose).
Hence, this paper presents the investigation on the effect of limestone powder as an additive and as cement replacement to the flowability and compressive strength of selfconsolidating lightweight ed concrete. 2.

Portland-limestone cement is a more sustainable, lower carbon cement that reduces CO 2 emissions by up to 10% while still producing concrete of equivalent performance, including comparable strength and ... cement (i.e. use of superplasticizers and other additives will achieve the same desired results).
The use of limestone powder to replace part of the cement clinker to produce Portland limestone cement (PLC) has become increasingly popular. Portland limestone cement is popular for three reasons. 1) When burning to form cement clinker, it consumes a lot of energy and releases a lot of carbon dioxide.
The growing utilization of MS, especially limestone MS, as a substitute for river sand raises novel challenges. The significant presence of limestone fines in MS implies that substituting traditional LF for cement partially in MS_SCC will result in a higher concentration of inert powders in the concrete, potentially impacting its long-term performance.

However, it is important to use the right cement additive with the right amount of limestone in order to achieve these benefits. Consider the following factors when producing Portland limestone cement. There are compliance standards and codes of practice to follow when using supplementary cementitious materials such as limestone. For example ...
Using limestone filler (LF) as a mineral additive of concrete with manufactured sand (MS) raises concerns about the long-term performance because of the high LF content in mixtures, particularly in high-binder content self-consolidating concrete (SCC).
