and C 637), mineralogical composition (ASTM C 294), and particle shape, but these, as well as the ones previously discussed, serve mainly as aids in describing an aggregate. …
The chemical composition as presented from each study cited is available in the Appendix. Similar to the physical properties, the chemical composition of RCA also varies considerably. This disparity is associated with the cement and aggregate composition from parent crushed concrete and adhered cement paste characteristics …
These aggregates, simply are a collection of discrete materials of varying sizes, shapes, and other essentials attribute. Aggregates can occupy up to 60%-75% volume of composite construction materials like concrete. Thus, their own properties have a significant impact on the overall …
The mineral and chemical composition of aggregate type that gives the highest adhesive strength is determined. It is found that the highest pull-out adhesive strength was obtained on samples those aggregates have high content (80–95%) of SiO 2 and with small amount (0.5–3.4%) of CaCO 3.
The mineral composition and microstructure of aggregate (crushed and river gravel) vitally affect the overall performance of bituminous mixes. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) has been used to evaluate surface topography and chemical composition which is presented in Figs. 4 and 5, respectively. The findings conclude …
and C 637), mineralogical composition (ASTM C 294), and particle shape, but these, as well as the ones previously discussed, serve mainly as aids in describing an aggregate. To understand the role played by aggregate in the performance of concrete, it is necessary to de fine specific aggregate properties and show their effect on concrete ...
The nature of aggregates has an important influence on the behaviour of concrete at high temperature. The aggregates used in concrete are classified into two …
The chemical composition of limestone was measured to assure the minimum presences of SiO 2. Since limestone quarries are commonly located near to clay quarries, the clay materials are mainly determinate by its SiO 2 percentage and have a high shrinkage grade [8], [9]. Accordingly, the chemical analysis is useful to discard a …

ness, permeability and pore structure, and chemical and mineral compo-sition. Thus the origin of the parent rock is very important. Rocks them-selves are comprised of various minerals, defined as 'naturally occurring inorganic substances of more or less definite chemical composition and usually of a specific crystalline structure' (ASTM C294).
In recent years, there has been increasing interest in daily-use chemical products providing a pleasant scent. The added fragrance molecules may induce microstructural transitions of surfactant aggregates, which further affect the physical and chemical properties of the products. Here, the effects of four types of aromatic alcohols …

The nature of aggregates has an important influence on the behaviour of concrete at high temperature. The aggregates used in concrete are classified into two categories: siliceous (S) and calcareous (C). Most publications and Eurocode 2 Part 1–2 underline concrete containing C aggregates have a better thermal resistance in …
The chemical composition of pumice is mainly based on the silica content, which is effective in the classification of pumice as acidic or basic. The major oxide in pumice is SiO 2 and it constitutes about 70% of pumice by weight. The other oxides in acidic pumice are Al 2 O 3 (∼14%), CaO (∼0.9%), Fe 2 O 3 (∼2.5%), MgO (∼0.6%) by …
The impact of aggregate chemical composition on adhesion was also studied. Section snippets Materials. In this study, 60/80 penetration grade asphalt obtained from SK petrochemical (Korea) was used. The physical properties of the asphalt binder are listed in Table 1. Two kinds of aggregate including limestone and granite were …
The bulk chemical composition of the different grain size fractions is given in Table 3, expressed as oxides. ... Fe 2 O 3 and MgO, reflect either differences in original aggregate composition, such as the presence of (dolomitic) limestone in the aggregate, and/or relative amounts of binders present in the adhering cement paste ...
