Mesostructural evolution of fine-aggregate bitumen emulsion–cement composites by X-ray tomography
Abstract
This research quantified the temporal mesostructural evolution of bitumen emulsion–cement composites using the time-lapse high-energy X-ray tomography of a fine-aggregate matrix. The image post-processing and analysis showed that the mastic’s significant temporal decrease in volume complemented the expansion of the pore space. Nevertheless, the volume fractions determined by the image analysis essentially differed from the physical composition of specimens and were several times less sensitive to curing. Because of the extremely heterogenous microstructure and the abundance of calcium, the mastic phase had the highest attenuation of X-rays, but the attenuations of bitumen- and cement-dominated systems experienced contrary temporal trends. The sand and pore space had typically smooth and oppositely evolving axial distributions with the highest-density plateau in the middle, while the mastic was distributed uniformly. The radial distributions evolved less irregularly and notably interfered with the post-processing of beam hardening. The temporal increase in the pore space’s local thicknesses was extremely unevenly distributed across diameters. Except the sand particle size distributions, all results were almost excellently repeatable. Finally, the interaction with X-rays was identified as crucial for the interpretation and validity of the results. Moreover, although water could not be segmented using the conventional X-ray tomography, its discrete signature was present throughout the behaviour of other phases.
