Abstract
- The influences of modifier and carbonation on the phase assemblage of magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC) are little concerned in the literature. A thermodynamic modeling approach is employed to explore the influencing mechanisms of two commonly used modifiers (i.e. FeSO 4 and KH 2 PO 4) and phase assemblage of MOC under natural and accelerated carbonation. And quantitatively XRD test of the modified or carbonated MOC samples is used to verify the reliability of thermodynamic modeling results. The results indicate that the addition of FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O has no effect on the phase assemblage of MOC, but can improve the formation of 5 Mg(OH) 2 ·MgCl 2 ·8H 2 O (phase 5), whereas KH 2 PO 4 inhibits the formation of phase 5. FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O and KH 2 PO 4 raise the concentration of Mg2+ in pore solution, hence enhancing the stability of phases in the matrix. The carbonate product (i.e. chlorartinite) typically identified in MOC is metastable. The carbonation of MOC may result in the following evolution of Mg-carbonates: chlorartinite → MgCO 3 ·MgCl 2 ·7H 2 O → nesquehonite → hydromagnesite. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
