Abstract
ABSTRACTIn the past the application of electron microscopy to cement hydration has been limited largely to the study of fracture surfaces in SEM, of ground cement in TEM and of polished sections in EMPA. Consequently the microstructure of bulk cement pastes is, as yet, ambiguous.The present work shows how techniques not previously used in the study of cement, an environmental cell on HVEM, preparation of ion beam thinned foils for STEM and BEI of polished surfaces in SEM, can give a more detailed view of the development of morphology in hydrating cement. Using a combination of electron optical techniques together with other methods a detailed characterisation of cement hydration can be made.
