This study aims to investigate and improve the carbon dioxide sequestration capability and the mechanical properties of non-hydraulic low calcium silicate cement especially designed for CO₂ reaction and ordinary Portland cement subjected to the carbonation curing facilitating pH swing method. Nitric acid (HNO₃) was utilized as an liquid for the mixing of cement paste to enhance the initial dissolution of Ca ions from the cements by promoting low pH environment and prevent the direct precipitation of Ca with the anion, owing to the high solubility of Ca(NO₃)₂ in water. The results presented that the higher the concentration of HNO₃, the higher the compressive strength and CO₂ sequestration (until 0.1 M). Ca dissolution caused by the harsh acid attack onto the anhydrous cement particle lead to the higher carbonation reaction degree, forming abundant CaCO₃ crystals after the reaction. However, cement paste mixed with excessively high concentration of HNO₃ presented deterioration due to the too harsh pH environment and abundant NO₃- ions which are known to retard the reaction of cement.

This study evaluates the permeability of cement-based composites, which are a mix of polyolefin fibers and silica fume. Test results indicate that permeability increases as the water/cementitious ratio increases. Silica fume in cement-based composites produced hydrated calcium silicate and filled the pores. However, permeability decreased as the addition of silica fume increased. Specimens containing polyolefin fibers also provided higher permeability resistance. The polyolefin fiber length did not have a significant effect on permeability. The decrease in the permeability is mainly due to the addition of silica fume and lower water/cementitious ratio. Addition of fibers marginally decreases the permeability. Incorporating polyolefin fiber and silica fume in composites achieved more significant decreases in permeability. The correlated test results reveal the interrelationship between them.

As II-anhydrite reacts with C3A(aluminate), C4AF(ferrite) at initial hydration of cement and assists the hydrolysis of C3S(calcium silicate), the production rate of ettringite(3C3A.3CaSO4.32H2O) and C-S-H gel was acclerated. It was known that compressive strength of cement concrete improved due to the effect of II-anhydrite. For the checking these effects of II-anhydrite, the fluidity and compressive strength of cementmortar admixed with II-anhydrite and pozollanic fine powders were investigated. By means of SEM analysis, the surface structure of mortar with the condition of steam curing at curing days=28 was investigated. As a result of this experiment, it was examined that II-anhydrite had an increase on the fluidity of cementpaste and compressive strength of mortar.

Coastal concrete structure is harmed by physical and chemical action of sea water, impact load, meteorological effect and etc. especially, premature reinforcement corrosion in concrete exposed to sea water has an important problem. In this study, the behavior of chloride ions penetrated through the coastal concrete structure with ordinary portland cement or ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBFS) was modeled. The physicochemical processes including the diffusion of chloride and the chemical reaction of chloride ion with calcium silicate hydrate and the other constituents of hardened cement paste such as$C_3A$ and $C_4AF$were analyzed by using the Finite Element Method. From analysis result, the corrosion of concrete structure with GGBFS begins 1.69~1.76 times later than that of concrete structure with ordinary portland cement.

이 연구의 목적은 4가지 규산 칼슘계 시멘트를 대상으로 물리적 특성을 비교하고 평가하는 것이다. 2종의 분말-용액 혼합형 재료인 RetroMTA^® [RTMX], Endocem^® MTA Zr [EZMX] 그리고 2종의 기혼합형 재료인 Well-Root^TMPT [WRPR], Endocem MTA^® premixed [ECPR]를 사용하여 경화시간, 용해도 및 압축강도를 비교하였다. 가장 짧은 경화 시간은 EZMX (123.33 ± 5.77초)에서 관찰되었으며, RTMX (146.67 ± 5.77초), ECPR (260.00 ± 17.32초) 및 WRPR (460.00 ± 17.32초) 순으로 증가하였다. 가장 높은 용해도는 WRPR (9.01 ± 0.55%)에서 관찰되었으며, RTMX (2.17 ± 0.07%), EZMX(0.55 ± 0.03%) 및 ECPR (0.17 ± 0.03%) 순으로 감소하였다. 또한 압축강도는 ECPR(76.67 ± 25.67 Mpa)에서 가장 높게 나타났고, WRPR (38.39 ± 7.25 Mpa), RTMX(35.07 ± 5.34 Mpa), EZMX (4.07 ± 0.60 Mpa) 순으로 감소하였다. 결론적으로 기혼합형 규산 칼슘계 시멘트들은 분말-용액 혼합형에 비해 긴 경화 시간을 나타내었다. 용해도 실험 결과 가장 낮은 용해도를 보인 ECPR과 가장 높은 용해도를 보인 WRPR에서 통계적 차이가 관찰되었다(p < 0.0083). 압축강도 실험결과 가장 낮은 압축 강도를 보인 EZMX와 가장 높은 압축 강도를 보인 ECPR에서 통계적 차이가 관찰되었다(p < 0.0083). ECPR은 분말-용액 혼합형에 비해 긴 경화 시간을 나타내지만, 미리 혼합되어 있어 혼합 시간이 필요하지 않고 용해도와 압축 강도가 개선되었으므로 임상 사용 시 선택될 수 있는 유망한 재료이다.

We demonstrated the sensitivity of optically active single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with a diameter below 1 nm that were homogeneously dispersed in cement composites under a mechanical load. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was selected as the dispersing agent to achieve a homogeneous dispersion of SWCNTs in an aqueous solution, and the dispersion state of the SWCNTs were characterized using various optical tools. It was found that the addition of a large amount of DNA prohibited the structural evolution of calcium hydroxide and calcium silicate hydrate. Based on the in-situ Raman and X-ray diffraction studies, it was evident that hydrophilic functional groups within the DNA strongly retarded the hydration reaction. The optimum amount of DNA with respect to the cement was found to be 0.05 wt%. The strong Raman signals coming from the SWCNTs entrapped in the cement composites enabled us to understand their dispersion state within the cement as well as their interfacial interaction. The G and G' bands of the SWCNTs sensitively varied under mechanical compression. Our results indicate that an extremely small amount of SWCNTs can be used as an optical strain sensor if they are homogeneously dispersed within cement composites.

Objectives: The obturation quality of MTA, Biodentine, Total Fill BC root canal sealer (RCS), and warm gutta-percha (WGP) in teeth with simulated internal root resorption (IRR) was evaluated by using micro-computed tomography. Materials and Methods: Standardized IRR cavities were created using 40 extracted maxillary central incisor teeth and randomly assigned into 4 groups (n = 10). IRR cavities were filled with MTA, Biodentine, Total Fill BC RCS (bulk-fill form) and WGP + Total Fill BC RCS. Percentage of voids between resorptive cavity walls and obturation material (external void), and inside the filling materials (internal voids) were measured. Results: Total Fill BC sealer in the bulk-fill form presented significantly highest values of external and internal void percentages (p < 0.05). Biodentine showed a significantly lowest external void percentage (p < 0.05). WGP + Total Fill BC RCS presented significantly lower values of internal void percentages than all groups (p < 0.05), except Biodentine (p > 0.05). Conclusion: None of the filling materials were created void-free obturation in resorption cavities. Biodentine may favor its application in teeth with IRR over Angelus MTA and bulkfill form of Total Fill BC.

The influence of powdered and colloidal nano-silica (NS) on the mechanical properties of cement mortar has been investigated. Powdered-NS (~40 nm) was synthesized by employing the sol-gel method and compared with commercially available colloidal NS (~20 nm). SEM and XRD studies revealed that the powdered-NS is non-agglomerated and amorphous, while colloidal-NS is agglomerated in nature. Further, these nanoparticles were incorporated into cement mortar for evaluating compressive strength, gel/space ratio, portlandite quantification, C-S-H quantification and chloride diffusion. Approximately, 27 and 37 % enhancement in compressive strength was observed using colloidal and powdered-NS, respectively, whereas the same was up to 19 % only when silica fume was used. Gel/space ratio was also determined on the basis of degree of hydration of cement mortar and it increases linearly with the compressive strength. Furthermore, DTG results revealed that lime consumption capacity of powdered-NS is significantly higher than colloidal-NS, which results in the formation of additional calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H). Chloride penetration studies revealed that the powdered-NS significantly reduces the ingress of chloride ion as the microstructure is considerably improved by incorporating into cement mortar.

본 연구는 건설 산업에 있어서 지구온난화의 주된 원인으로 알려져 있는 시멘트를 고로슬래그 미분말로 대체하기 위한 기초적인 연구를 수행한 것으로, 고로슬래그 및 알칼리 자극제를 사용하여 시멘트 콘크리트와 같은 성질을 가지는 경화체의 제조가 가능한지에 대한 실험적 검토를 실시하였다. 이를 위하여 시멘트 대체재로 철강 산업의 부산물인 고로슬래그 미분말과 자극제로 수산화칼륨(KOH), 수산화칼슘($Ca(OH)_2$), 수산화나트륨(NaOH) 등을 사용하여 공시체를 제작한 후, 휨 및 압축강도, XRD, EDS 및 SEM 등에 대한 측정을 실시함으로써 무시멘트 경화체의 반응 특성에 대하여 분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 고로슬래그에 함유되어 있던 $SiO_2$, CaO 등이 용출되어 시멘트의 수화반응과 같은 칼슘 실리케이트(C-S-H) 수화물을 생성하는 것으로 나타나 고로슬래그 미분말을 사용하여 무시멘트 경화체의 제조가 가능할 것으로 나타났으며, 이후 건설 산업에 있어서 가장 중요한 콘텐트 중에 하나인 시멘트 제조에 수반하는 $CO_2$ 발생량을 줄이기 위한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

최근 순환골재의 활용에 관한 필요성이 증대되고 있으나, 순환골재의 강알칼리성으로 인해 다양한 문제들이 발생되고 있다. 순환골재의 강알칼리성은 대부분 골재 표면에 완전히 제거되지 못한 시멘트 페이스트에 의해 발현되는 것으로써 이를 해결하기 위해 이산화탄소를 활용하여 순환골재의 pH를 저감하기 위해 노력이 지속되어왔다. 그러나 기존의 이산화탄소를 이용한 처리 방법에 의해 중성화 처리된 순환골재는 시간이 지남에 따라 pH가 다시 회복된다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방법으로 반응성이 뛰어난 초임계이산화탄소의 활용을 제안하며, 이를 위해 초임계상의 이산화탄소와 수화된 시멘트 페이스트간의 반응 메커니즘을 분석하였다. 그 결과 입자 형태 및 $scCO_2$ 주입량에 따라 중성화 반응정도가 현저하게 달라지는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 powder 형태 시험체에서 $scCO_2$ 주입량이 많은 고온 고압 상태에서 중성화 반응은 활발하게 이루어졌다. 이때 시멘트의 높은 pH를 주도하는 portlandite가 대부분 calcite와 aragonite의 형태로 변환되었으며, ettringite, hemicarbonate 및 monocarbonate와 같은 calcium aluminate 수화물 또한 안정적으로 존재하지 못하고 분해된 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 10mm 크기의 수화된 시멘트 페이스트는 $scCO_2$가 시험체 내부깊이 침투하지 못하고 표면에서만 반응하여, 반응 후에도 내부에 portlandite와 calcium aluminate 수화물이 잔존한다. 이로 인해 시간이 경과할수록 내부의 portlandite가 점차 용출되어 pH가 다시 상승하는 것으로 나타났다.
