Pore structure of mortars containing limestone powder and natural pozzolan assessed through mercury intrusion porosimetry and dynamic vapour sorption
Abstract
Pore structure characterization is a key aspect when studying the durability of cementitious materials. When supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are used changes in pore structure are expected, and the complexity of its analysis is increased. The purpose of this paper is to describe the pore structure variation of mortars with two types of SCMs: natural pozzolan from volcanic origin (NP), and limestone powder (LP). We tested mixes with cement replacements (in weight) of 20 % and 40% by NP, and 10 % and 20% by LP. To analyse the pore structure, two widely accepted and complementary techniques were applied: dynamic water vapour sorption (DVS) and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). With the DVS data, the Barret-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) model was used for pore size distribution assessment. Calculations with the Dubinin-Radushkevich (DR) model were also made for the smallest pore size range. Tests were performed at 28 and 90 days. MIP and DVS allowed evaluating the effect of the studied SCMs on different pore size ranges. Both techniques provided comprehensive information over a wide range of pore sizes. The mix with 40 % of NP had the best evolution, showing a significant volume decrease in the mesopore range.
