T1 - Particle Interactions in Silica Systems in Presence of Superplasticizer N2 - The flowability of cement paste is of great importance in today’s construction industry and is influenced by additives such as superplasticizers (SP). One type of SPs are polycarboxylate ether type SPs. These additives electrostatically bind with the negatively charged carboxylic groups at the backbone to the positively charged clinker phases. To model positively charged clinker phases with adsorbed SP, silicon Wafers are pre-coated with cationic polyethylenimine (PEI) and SP is adsorbed onto the coated surface (Si/PEI/SP). Two different polycarboxylate ether type (PCE) SP are compared – one for ready-mix concrete and one for precast concrete. In this preliminary study the interaction forces between Si/PEI/SP surface and a silica microsphere (colloidal probe) are investigated under mild physico-chemical conditions (pH *6, ion concentration <10−5 M) using Colloidal Probe Atomic Force Microscopy (CP-AFM). The interaction force between the model surfaces is attractive for low concentration of SP. The force changes from attractive to repulsive by increasing amount of SP. The force upon approach reveals a biexponential behavior. The exponential decay at large and short surface separations are attributed to electrostatic and steric interactions, respectively. The steric forces of the SP for ready-mix concrete show a steeper onset than the SP for precast concrete. The quantification of these interaction forces will be compared to rheological measurements of similar systems. Furthermore, the parameters will be changed to better approach the conditions in real systems, i.e. higher pH and ionic strength. This helps to understand how the forces on the nanoscale influence the macroscopic rheology.

T1 - Chemischer Angriff auf Beton - Empfehlungen zur Prüfung und Bewertung N2 - ln den letzten Jahren wurden diverse Prüfverfahren und Methoden entwickelt, um die Leistungsfähigkeit von Beton bzw. Bindemittel hinsichtlich des Widerstands gegenüber betonaggressiven Einwirkungen beurteilen zu können. Ein wesentliches Ziel von Prüfverfahren zur Beurteilung der Dauerhaftigkeit von Baustoffen ist, die im Laufe der Nutzungsdauer zu erwartenden Einwirkungen auf den Baustoff realitätsnah abzubilden. Dazu sind die Prüfparameter auf die im jeweiligen Anwendungsbereich vorherrschenden Umgebungs- und Randbedingungen anzupassen. Daneben sind auch die Bewertungskriterien individuell unter Berücksichtigung der im Einzelfall geforderten Nutzungsdauer eines Bauwerks festzulegen. Eine systematische Zuordnung von adäquaten Prüfverfahren bzw. Prüfparametem und Bewertungskriterien für die verschiedenen Anwendungsbereiche im Betonbau, in denen betonaggressive Einwirkungen auftreten, ist mit Ausnahme von Einzelfällen bislang nicht vorhanden. Daneben stellt sich in der Praxis immer wieder das Problem, das Angriffspotenzial der Umgebung eines Bauwerks (prüftechnisch) zu erfassen und zu bewerten. Der Hauptausschuss Baustofftechnik des DBV hat daher den Arbeitskreis „Chemischer Angriff auf Beton“ beauftragt, dieses Merkblatt zu erarbeiten, das auf Basis von einschlägigen Erfahrungen der Baupraxis und wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen Grundsätze und bewährte Methoden zur Beurteilung der Einwirkungs- und Widerstandsseite beim chemischen Angriff auf Beton aufzeigt und diesbezüglich Hinweise für verschiedene Anwendungsbereiche im Betonbau liefert.

T1 - Chemischer Angriff auf Betonbauwerke - Bewertung des Angriffsgrads und geeignete Schutzprinzipien N2 - In verschiedenen Bereichen des Betonbaus ist Beton einem chemischen Angriff von außen ausgesetzt, der die Dauerhaftigkeit des betreffenden Bauteils bzw. des gesamten Bauwerks beeinträchtigen kann. Für einen chemischen Angriff in natürlichen Böden und Grundwässern bestehen normative Vorgaben in DIN 4030-1 [R10] bzw. DIN 1045-2 [R19], um den Angriffsgrad anhand der Art und Konzentration der angreifenden Stoffe in Expositionsklassen XA1 (schwach angreifend) bis XA3 (stark angreifend) einzustufen. Hinsichtlich weiterer maßgeblicher Einflussfaktoren wird an dieser Stelle nicht näher differenziert, ob und inwieweit die Regelungen für Böden und Grundwässer auch auf andere Bereiche mit chemischem Angriff auf Beton zu übertragen sind, ist stets im Einzelfall zu überprüfen. Ebenfalls sind die zu treffenden Maßnahmen über die Vorgaben der DIN EN 206-1/DIN 1045-2 [R19] hinaus anwendungsspezifisch festzulegen. Der Hauptausschuss Baustofftechnik (HABT) des DBV hat daher den Arbeitskreis "Chemischer Angriff auf Beton" beauftragt, dieses Merkblatt zu erarbeiten, das Hilfestellung bei der Bewertung einer projektspezifischen chemischen Angriffssituation auf Beton sowie bei der Planung und Ausführung von Schutzprinzipien leisten soll.

Zur Bewertung des Ausbauasphalts ist es daher notwendig, die Modifizierungen an der Mischanlage zu identifizieren. Die Ausbildung des Bindemittelsacks beim Erweichungspunkt Ring und Kugel ist charakteristisch für die Modifizierung. Hierdurch können wachsmodifizierte Bitumen (WmB) recht präzise und Polymermodifizierten Bitumen (PmB) teilweise identifiziert werden. Mittels Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) werden die Schmelztemperaturen der Wachse erfasst. Hierdurch können WmB identifiziert und die Wachsarten unterschieden werden. Die Analytik mittels Dynamischem Scherrheometer (DSR) startet mit der Bestimmung der Äquisteifigkeitstemperatur EG*T. Bei EG*T werden Frequenz-, Amplituden- und MSCR-Tests durchgeführt. Die Grenze des LVE-Bereichs dient der Identifizierung von WmB. Anhand der Kennwerte bei 0,1 Hz können PmB erkannt werden. Die Rückformung (MSCRT) dient der Identifizierung von Mehrfachmodifizierungen. Da Gummimodifizierte Bitumen (GmB) bei der Extraktion erkannt werden, können alle Modifizierungsarten identifiziert werden. In den FTIR-Spektren (Fourier-Transformations-Infrarotspektroskopie) der modifizierten Bitumen verursachen einige Polymere und Wachse charakteristische Banden, wodurch diese erkannt werden. Die Identifizierung der übrigen Additive erfolgt mithilfe einer multivariaten Auswertung, wodurch mit Ausnahme der GmB (nicht erforderlich) alle Additive erkannt werden. An Stichproben konnte zudem eine Abgrenzung von Mehrfachmodifizierungen sowie eine Abschätzung der Zugabemenge erreicht werden. DSR und FTIR ermöglichen beide eine schnelle, einfache und zielsichere Identifizierung der Bitumenmodifizierungen. Durch die FTIR-Analytik können die Modifizierungen mit der größtmöglichen Präzision bestimmt werden. Die DSR-Analytik erlaubt dafür zusätzlich eine baupraktische Bewertung der Bindemittel. As polymer, rubber, wax and multi-modified bitumen are used for asphalt road construction since many years, they increasingly occur in reclaimed asphalt. To assess the reclaimed asphalt, it is therefore necessary to identify the modifications in the mixing plants. The formation of the binder bag at softening point ring and ball is characteristic for modification. In this way, wax modified bitumen (WmB) can be identified rather precisely and to a less extent polymer modified bitumen (PmB) can also be identified. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is used to record the melting temperatures of the waxes. In this way, WmB can be identified and a differentiation can be made between the wax types. The analysis by means of the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) starts with the determination of the equi-stiffness temperature EG*T. Frequency-, amplitude- and MSCR-tests are performed at EG*T. The limit of the LVE range is used to identify WmB. PmB can be identified based on the characteristic values at 0.1 Hz. Creep recovery (MSCRT) is used to identify multi-modifications. As rubber modified bitumen (GmB) is identified on extraction, all types of modification can therefore be identified. Several polymers and waxes cause characteristic bands in the FTIR spectra (Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy) of modified bitumen, which enables the identification of these additives. The other additives except the GmB (not necessary) can be identified by means of multivariate model. Further, due to random evaluations, the differentiation between single- and multi-modification as well as the estimation of the content of some additives is possible. DSR and FTIR both enable fast, simple and accurate identification of the bitumen modification. The modification can be determined with the greatest possible precision by using FTIR analysis. On the other hand, DSR analysis allows additional practical assessment of the binder on site.

T1 - Interlaboratory study on rheological properties of cement pastes and reference substances: comparability of measurements performed with different rheometers and measurement geometries N2 - This paper presents the results of an interlaboratory study of the rheological properties of cement paste and ultrasound gel as reference substance. The goal was to quantify the comparability and reproducibility of measurements of the Bingham parameters yield stress and plastic viscosity when measured on one specific paste composition and one particular ultrasound gel in different laboratories using different rheometers and measurement geometries. The procedures for both in preparing the cement paste and carrying out the rheological measurements on cement paste and ultrasound gel were carefully defined for all of the study’s participants. Different conversion schemes for comparing the results obtained with the different measurement setups are presented here and critically discussed. The procedure proposed in this paper ensured a reasonable comparability of the results with a coefficient of variation for the yield stress of 27% and for the plastic viscosity of 24%, despite the individual measurement series’ having been performed in different labs with different rheometers and measurement geometries.

T1 - Effect of resting time on rheological properties of glass bead suspensions: Depletion and bridging force among particles N2 - The effect of resting time on the rheological properties of cement suspensions is generally explained by early formed structure and overconsumption of polycarboxylate superplasticizers (PCEs). In this paper, we propose that the influence of resting time on the rheological properties is closely related to size variation of non-absorbed PCE. To identify this, glass bead suspensions were prepared with various amounts of PCE and ionic solution, and their rheological properties were evaluated at various times. We found that the yield stress increases with time at higher PCE concentrations and higher ionic strength solutions. Adsorbed PCE during resting tends to bridge the particles rather than disperse them. In addition, it was found that hydrodynamic radius of PCE increased with resting time, and depletion forces resulting from non-absorbed PCE size changes correlate well with the increased yield stress.

T1 - Development of a sample preparation procedure for Sr isotope analysis of Portland cements N2 - The 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio can, in principle, be used for provenancing of cement. However, while commercial cements consist of multiple components, no detailed investigation into their individual 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios or their influence on the integral 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio of the resulting cement was conducted previously. Therefore, the present study aimed at determining and comparing the conventional 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios of a diverse set of Portland cements and their corresponding Portland clinkers, the major component of these cements. Two approaches to remove the additives from the cements, i.e. to measure the conventional 87Sr/86Sr isotopic fingerprint of the clinker only, were tested, namely, treatment with a potassium hydroxide/sucrose solution and sieving on a 11-µm sieve. Dissolution in concentrated hydrochloric acid/nitric acid and in diluted nitric acid was employed to determine the 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios of the cements and the individual clinkers. The aim was to find the most appropriate sample preparation procedure for cement provenancing, and the selection was realised by comparing the 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios of differently treated cements with those of the corresponding clinkers. None of the methods to separate the clinkers from the cements proved to be satisfactory. However, it was found that the 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios of clinker and cement generally corresponded, meaning that the latter can be used as a proxy for the clinker 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio. Finally, the concentrated hydrochloric acid/nitric acid dissolution method was found to be the most suitable sample preparation method for the cements; it is thus recommended for 87Sr/86Sr isotope analyses for cement provenancing.

T1 - Provenancing of cement using elemental analyses and isotope techniques – The state-of-the-art and future perspectives N2 - With the aim of identifying the origin and the manufacturer of a cement, a reliable procedure that provides unambiguous results is needed. Such procedure could resolve practical issues in damage research, liability issues and forensic investigations. A substantial number of attempts for fingerprinting of building materials, including cement, has already been carried out during the last decades. Most of them were based on concentration analysis of the main elements/components. This review provides an overview of provenance studies of cement and the main approaches commonly used. Provenance studies of cement via isotope techniques are also presented and discussed as representatives of the state-of-the-art in the field. Due to the characteristic properties and the occurrence of carefully selected isotope ratios, unique fingerprints of different kinds of materials can be provided by these methods. This property has largely been explored in various scientific fields such as geo- and cosmochemistry, food forensics, archaeology, geochronology, biomedical studies, and climate change processes. However, the potential of isotope techniques in cement and concrete research for provenance studies has barely been investigated. Therefore, the review outlines a suitable approach using isotope ratios, which could lead to reliable provenancing of cementitious materials in the future.

A1 - Vogl, Jochen T1 - Fingerprinting Portland cements by means of 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd isotope ratios and geochemical profiles N2 - This study uses conventional 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd isotope and interelement ratios of Ca, Sr, K, Mn, Mg and Ti as fingerprints for provenancing ordinary Portland cements (OPC). Herein, the first database of Sr and Nd isotope ratios investigated in OPCs, stemming from 29 cement plants located worldwide, was created. The results show that the Sr isotope ratios of OPCs are higher than those of seawater from the observed geological period. The spread of 143Nd/144Nd in OPCs is not as large as the spread for 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratios. However, the combination of both Sr and Nd isotope ratios provides the potential for distinguishing between cements of different production sites. Most of the OPCs investigated have measurable differences in their 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd isotope ratios, which can be employed as a valuable analytical fingerprinting tool. In the case of equivocal results, divisive hierarchical clustering was employed to help overcome this issue. The construction of geochemical profiles allowed the computing of suitably defined distances between cements and clustering them according to their chemical similarity. By applying this methodology, successful fingerprinting was achieved in 27 out of the 29 ordinary Portland cements that were analysed.

T1 - Influence of different accelerators on the rheology and early hydration of cement paste N2 - Special applications like pumping, spraying or printing of concrete require the precise adjustment of very specific rheological properties at different time steps during the casting process. Superplasticizers such as polycarboxylate ethers (PCE) can be used to obtain the required flowability, which, possibly in combination with additional rheology modifying admixtures, generate the required specified consistency. However, after the application, the concrete should change the rheological properties immediately in order to avoid deformations at rest. Therefore, the use of accelerators can be effective. Accelerators influence the hydration of cementitious materials, and thus the rheological properties over the course of time and the setting. In this paper, the influence of different accelerators on the rheology and early hydration of cement paste as well as the interaction of accelerator and PCE are presented. Methods like rheometry, needle penetration tests and practical Tests like spread flow were applied. The used accelerators showed accelerating behavior on the cement pastes without and in the presence of PCE. At the same time an influence on the rheology could be observed. This effect was less in the mixes with PCE, especially at the highest water/cement ratio (w/c).
