Durability And Microstructure of Pore Reduced Cements(PRC)

Abstract

AbstractThe pore structure characteristics of cementitious materials play an important role in defining their mechanical and durability performance. The mechanical properties of pore reduced cements (PRC) have already been reported [5] as a function of the product density. This paper reports recent data on the durability of PRC and attempts to relate the pore properties of the material to its resistance against deterioration in aggressive environments.
