Permission to use the term and/or the logo is con- trolled by NIST as is the quality of the use of the term SRM and of the logo itself. Foreword The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), formerly the National Bureau of Standards, was created by a Congressional act in 1901 to be the source and custodian of standards for physical measurement in the United States and charged with the responsibility for establishing a measurement foundation to facilitate both national and international commerce. This mission was purposely stated in broad terms in order to allow the agency the flexibility to reorient its programs in response to changing national needs and priorities. As a result of its congressionally mandated mission, first the National Bureau of Standards and now NIST has aimed its research and service activities toward: helping U.S. industry improve its competitiveness through new technologies, modernized production processes, improved quality control and rapid commercialization. At the same time, the Institute has two very important goals in serving the needs of its other major customers — government at all levels, academia, and the general public. They are: improving public health, safety, and the environment through selected research programs, and conducting fundamental research that advances science and engineering. The evolving linkage between the United States and world economy has resulted in an increased aware- ness of the need for comparability among data used to assess product quality and/or evaluate processes. Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) represent one mechanism by which measurement quality and trace- ability to national and international standards can be achieved when they are properly used. As a part of its congressional mandate the goals of NIST are to: develop reference and definitive methods of analysis, certify and issue standards, and assure their effective use in the measurement community, thereby helping to achieve accurate measurements in the United States and throughout the world. The Standard Reference Materials Program distributes over 1300 different SRMs developed and certified in the NIST laboratories. NIST has a customer base for its standards of over 60,000 users with approxi- mately 25% located outside the United States. All currently available SRMs are described in this Standard Reference Materials Catalog, Special Publication 260. In addition to the current stock of SRMs, the Program will partner with customers to evaluate proposed SRMs for their potential to meet industry- wide requirements, to develop SRMs based on identified needs, and issue new SRMs that will help standardization efforts. As the world commerce and trade markets have become more global, customers are using SRMs more to achieve conformance to process requirements and measurement quality that address international as well as national needs for commerce and trade. All measurements using SRMs have the capability of being traceable to a common and recognized set of standards and consequently the compatibility of laboratories can be realized. Continued support for the SRM Program is appreciated. Thomas E.

The materials are arranged according to technical category and classified as follows: Standard Reference Materials for Chemical Composition; Standard Reference Materials for Physical Properties; and Standard Reference Materials for Engineering Materials. Technical descriptions are given for all materials and may include certified values. However, these values are incomplete as they appear in the catalog and therefore cannot be referenced for actual measurement purposes. The certificates issued by the SRMP are the only legitimate sources of certified information for NIST reference materials. Key Words: analysis, calibration, Certified Reference Materials, characterization, composition, concen- tration, material, measurement, property, quality assurance, quality control, Reference Materials, Standard Reference Materials, standardization. 1 NIST Policy Regarding Use of Metric (SI) Units The following policy was established in February 1991: "In accordance with the Metric Conversion Act of 1975 as amended by Section 5164 of the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 and as required by related provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will use the modem metric system of measurement units (International System of Units — SI) in all publications. When the field of appli- cation or the special needs of users of NIST publications require the use of non-SI units, the values of quantities will be first stated in SI units and the corresponding values expressed in non-SI units will follow in parentheses." The technical information contained in this catalog is consistent with the above policy. Only SI units and symbols have been used to describe the reference materials contained herein. Therefore, abrogated or obsolete quantifiers (i.e., the term, ppm), no longer appear, but rather have been replaced with the correct SI term, (mg/kg), and reference material values previously expressed in only in-lb units, have been con- verted to the appropriate SI units [1,2]. Due to space limitations, the non-SI units converted are not shown in the catalog. There is one notable exception to this policy — use of the quantifier, "Wt. %". While this quantifier is not a SI unit, it is very widely used in industry and thus appears in many SRM certificates and throughout this catalog. However, in accordance with the above policy, future SRM certifications which heretofore would have been expressed in "Wt. %", will instead be expressed as a fraction or a percent of the appropriate SI unit which pertains to the quantity(ies) certified. Note to SRM Users: Individual SRM certificates should be consulted to ascertain if certification data have been expressed in both SI and non-SI units.

  • An Introduction to Pozzolana and Pozzolanic Cement
    An Introduction to Pozzolana and Pozzolanic Cement INTRODUCTION: Pozzolana, also known as pozzolanic ash, is a fine, sandy volcanic ash. Pozzolanic ash was first discovered and dug in Italy at Pozzuoli , in the region around Vesuvius. It was later discovered at a number of other sites as well. Vitruvius speaks of four types of pozzolana: black, white, grey, and red, all of which can be found in the volcanic areas of Italy, such as Naples. Pozzolana is a siliceous and aluminous material which reacts with calcium hydroxide in the presence of water. This forms compounds possessing cementitious properties at room temperature which have the ability to set underwater. It transformed the possibilities for making concrete structures, although it took the Romans some time to discover its full potential. Typically it was mixed two-to-one with lime just prior to mixing with water. The Roman port at Cosa was built of Pozzolana that was poured underwater, apparently using a long tube to carefully lay it up without allowing sea water to mix with it. The three piers are still visible today, with the underwater portions in generally excellent condition even after more than 2100 years. Portland Pozzolanic Cements are a mix of natural or industrial pozzolans and Portland cement. In addition to underwater use, the high alkalinity of pozzolana makes it especially resistant to common forms of corrosion from sulphates. Once fully hardened, the Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) will be stronger than Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC), due to its lower porosity, which also makes it more resistant to water absorption and spalling.

  • Opportunities for Using Bauxite Residue in Portland Cement Clinker Production
    Opportunities for using bauxite residue in Portland cement clinker production Opportunities for using bauxite residue in Portland cement clinker production International Aluminium Institute: www.world‐aluminium.org Current IAI membership represents over 60 % of global bauxite, alumina and aluminium production. Since its foundation in 1972 (as the International Primary Aluminium Institute), the members of the IAI have been companies engaged in the production of bauxite, alumina, aluminium, the recycling of aluminium, or fabrication of aluminium or as joint venture partners in such. The global objectives of the Institute are: In 2016 the International Aluminium Institute undertook a review of opportunities for bauxite residue in all aspects of cement production and usage. This paper addresses the background to using bauxite residue in the production of Portland cement clinker, separate papers cover possible usage in calcium sulfoaluminate/special/sulfobelite cements and in supplementary cementious materials. 2 Opportunities for using bauxite residue in Portland cement clinker production Summary The prospects for using bauxite residue in Portland cement has been explored for over 80 years with many promising technical studies and several successful large scale commercial initiatives. The iron and aluminium compounds contained in the bauxite residue provide valuable additions in the production of Portland cement at a low cost. The best estimates are that between 1,000,000 to 1,500,000 tonnes of bauxite residue are currently used annually in the production of Portland Cement clinker. The cement plants currently utilising the bauxite residue in clinker production are based in China, Ukraine, India, Russia, Georgia, Moldova, Cyprus and Greece. From the evidence from the cement plants that are already using bauxite residue on an industrial scale, it is clear that bauxite residue can satisfactorily be used in cement clinker manufacture with only slight changes to their operating process.

  • Effect of Calcium Silicates on Immobilization of Fluorine in Aqueous Solution
    ISIJ International, Vol. 41 (2001), No. 5, pp. 513–518 Effect of Calcium Silicates on Immobilization of Fluorine in Aqueous Solution Hongye HE and Hideaki SUITO Research Institute for Advanced Materials Processing, Tohoku University, Katahira, Aoba-ku, Sendai 980-8577 Japan. (Received on December 18, 2000; accepted in final form on February 20, 2001) Immobilization of fluorine in aqueous solution with 2CaO · SiO2 (C2S) and 3CaO · SiO2 (C3S), and the effect of C2S and C3S on the fluorine immobilization with 3CaO · Al2O3 (C3A) and 12CaO · 7Al2O3 (C12A7) have been studied. The hydration products are identified by X-ray diffraction method and the fluorine-substituted com- pounds are confirmed by electron microprobe analysis. It is found that C3S appears more effective to immo- Ϫ Ϫ bilization of fluorine than C2S and (OH ) site in calcium silicate hydrates is substituted with F ion. The be- havior of fluorine immobilization by calcium aluminates changes with the addition of calcium silicates be- cause calcium silicates affect the formation of Ca3Al2(OH)12ϪxFx, which is the most effective calcium alumi- Ϫ nate hydrate in view of the incorporation of F ion. The fluorine immobilization with C12A7 can be promoted in the presence of appropriate amount of C2S or C3S. KEY WORDS: immobilization; fluorine; calcium silicate; calcium aluminate; hydration. 2. Experimental 1. Introduction 2.1.

  • Portland Cement Clinker Standard Reference Materials Certificate Of
    National Institute of Standards & Technology Certificate of Analysis Standard Reference Material® SRM 2686 Portland Cement Clinker This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended for use in evaluating methods of phase abundance analysis of 1 2 major phases in cement clinkers: the percentages of alite (C3S) , belite (β-C2S), aluminate (C3A), ferrite (C4AF), and periclase (M). Each unit consists of three hermetically-sealed containers of approximately 10 g each of crushed portland cement clinker. The materials selected for SRMs 2686, 2687, and 2688 differ widely in phase abundance, crystal sizes, and distribution of crystals [1,2]. Certified Values: The certified values for SRM 2686, expressed as mass fractions, are provided in Table 1. A NIST certified value is a value for which NIST has the highest confidence in its accuracy, in that all known or suspected sources of bias have been investigated or accounted for by NIST. The certified values listed are based on the results of analyses performed at NIST using quantitative X-ray powder diffraction (QXRD) and from optical microscopy point count analyses conducted by both Construction Technology Laboratories, Inc. (CTL)3 and ASTM C 1.23 Microscopy Task Group (MPC) [3,4]. The MPC analyses followed ASTM C 1356M [5] and the QXRD used Reitveld refinement of powder diffraction data [6,7]. Sampling for the X-ray study allowed assessment of within and between vial homogeneity and found the materials to be homogeneous. The uncertainty listed with each value is an expanded uncertainty, with coverage factor 2, calculated by combining a between-method variance [8,9] with a pooled, within-method variance following the ISO/NIST Guide [10].

Raman microspectroscopy combines high structural sensitivity with micrometre to sub-micrometre spatial resolution and compatibility with conventional thin-sectional samples in an almost unique fashion, making it an interesting complementary extension of the existing methodological arsenal for mortar analysis. Raman spectra are vibrational fingerprints of crystalline and amorphous compounds, and contain marker bands that are specific for minerals and their polymorphic forms. Relative intensities of bands that are related to the same crystalline species change according to crystal orientations,

One way of reducing emissions is by substituting part of the cement clinker with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). SCMs typically contain more silica and alumina and less calcium than ordinary PC, which could change the compositoin of hydrated cement and C-S-H. This study aims to determine how the kinetics and reversibility of aluminium uptake in calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H) changes, based on its composition. Specifically, it investigates how the Ca/Si molar ratio of C-S-H changes the kinetics of aluminium uptake and properties of the resulting solids, as well as whether the aluminium uptake is reversible. In order to investigate the kinetics of aluminium uptake, 240 samples of varying Ca/Si and Al/Si molar ratio with varying hydration time were synthesised and analysed. The results showed slower uptake of aluminium in low Ca/Si samples, compared to high Ca/Si.

Abstract Anhydrite (CaSO4) beds occur as a cap rock on a salt dome in Winn Parish in north Louisiana. Locally known as Winn Rock, it has been quarried for gravel for road building. It has been used as a surface course for local parish and logging roads. Stabilization of these roads with Type I portland cement followed by an overlay of asphaltic concrete sometimes resulted in heaving. The causes of heaving and possible solutions were investigated. In the laboratory 2” x 4” molds of Winn Rock containing soil were stabilized with various cementitious mixes and cured in a 40°C water bath, in a 100 percent-relative-humidity room, a sealed plastic bag at room temperature, and air.
