Large-cage occupation and quantum dynamics of hydrogen molecules in sII clathrate hydrates

Richard Gaal, Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Umbertoluca Ranieri

Hydrogen clathrate hydrates are ice-like crystalline substances in which hydrogen molecules are trapped inside polyhedral cages formed by the water molecules. Small cages can host only a single H-2 molecule, while each large cage can be occupied by up to f ...

Factors affecting the reactivity of slag at early and late ages

Karen Scrivener, Mohsen Ben Haha, Yosra Briki

This study investigates the difference between the reactivity of slag in NaOH solution (w/s = 100) and in cement paste (w/b = 0.4). The reactivity of slag is much higher in NaOH solution than in cement paste. When the NaOH solution is saturated with portla ...

Observation of methane filled hexagonal ice stable up to 150 GPa

Philippe Gillet, Richard Gaal, Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Umbertoluca Ranieri

Gas hydrates consist of hydrogen-bonded water frameworks enclosing guest gas molecules and have been the focus of intense research for almost 40 y, both for their fundamental role in the understanding of hydrophobic interactions and for gas storage and ene ...

Factors influencing the hydration kinetics of ye'elimite; effect of mayenite

Karen Scrivener, Mohsen Ben Haha, Frank Bullerjahn

The aim of this study was to understand the origin of the variation in the hydraulic reactivity of ye'elimite systems. To this end, the hydration of two clinkers, one composed mainly of synthetic stoichiometric (C(4)A(3)(S) over bar) "Y" and the other of a ...

Hydration reactions and stages of clinker composed mainly of stoichiometric ye'elimite

Karen Scrivener, Emmanuelle Boehm Courjault, Mohsen Ben Haha, Frank Bullerjahn

Ye'climitc (Ca4Al6O12SO4 or C(4)A(3)(S) over bar) is the main hydraulic mineral present in calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA). The hydration of ye'elimite is responsible for the early age cement properties. We identify 5 stages in the hydration of neat st ...

Salt- and gas-filled ices under planetary conditions

Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Umbertoluca Ranieri

In recent years, evidence has emerged that solid water can contain substantial amounts of guest species, such as small gas molecules-in gas hydrate structures-or ions-in salty ice structures-and that these 'filled' ice structures can be stable under pressu ...
