Article Abstract
This dataset contains a collection of digitized three-dimensional hardened cement paste microstructures obtained from X-ray micro-computed tomography. Four sets of ordinary Portland cement-based pastes were produced and X-ray screened, varying in the initial water-to-cement ratio (wcr=0.35 and 0.50) and fineness of cement used (391 and 273 m/kg Blaine). Individual paste samples from each set were screened after 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 14, and 28 days of elapsed hydration at 20˚C in saturated conditions. Each digitized paste specimen captures a realistic spatial configuration of the principal microstructural phases (anhydrous cement, hydration products, and large capillary porosity). The dataset may be further used for assessing changes in the mix design on the resultant spatial configuration of the paste microstructure or aid the development of microstructure-inspired micromechanical models based on realistic material configuration.

Cemented paste backfill has made outstanding contributions to the large-scale consumption of phosphogypsum (PG), but poor water resistance significantly weakens the mechanical strength, promotes the leaching of total soluble phosphate (TP) and fluoride ions (F), and reduces its attractiveness in mine engineering. This research synthesized a curing agent (CA) using sodium methylsilicate, sodium silicate, and polyaluminum chloride (PAC). PG produced from Deyang Haohua Qingping Phosphate Mine Co.

In order to promote the development and application of low-carbon cement varieties and the recycling of industrial solid waste, this study used iron tailings and fluorogypsum to prepare iron-rich belite-sulfoaluminate cement (I-BCSA). The suitable conditions for the preparation of I-BCSA in this system were with an excessive addition of 6 wt% of SO in the raw meal, at a calcination temperature of 1250 °C for 1.5 h, and an added-gypsum content of 15 wt%.

Calcium-phosphate cement (CPC), a paste-like artificial bone, is a material form that allows minimally invasive treatment. However, CPC is not infection resistant, which may lead to surgical site infections. We recently developed a paste-like organic/inorganic hybrid artificial bone that is compatible with the bone remodeling cycle.

Foamed concrete (FC) is a lightweight cementitious material made by adding a stable pre-formed foam to a cement paste or mortar to make a homogenized mixture of a controlled low density. The present work aims at evaluating the effect Scrap Aluminum Engine Residue (SAER) has on fresh, mechanical, thermal, and microstructural properties of FC with a water-to-cement ratio of 0.4 at targeted densities of 900 kg/m (FC-900) and 1100 kg/m (FC-1100).

Geopolymer concrete uses a geopolymer binder instead of traditional Portland cement; thus, it reduces carbon emissions by a significant amount. In this study, Edge-Oxidized Graphene Oxide (EOGO), a carbon-based nanomaterial, was added into a metakaolin-based geopolymer, and its effect on the mechanical and rheological properties of the mixture was investigated. EOGO was added into the mixture at 0% (control), 0.
