A paper on the impacts of shrinkage-reduing admixture and alkali metal ions on hydration+ pore structure has been published from CCR.
The work was conducted by Dr. Hafsa Rahoui (Holcim) who has studied in NU for ~ 2 years, as a collarboration with Prof. Jean-Michel Pereira, Prof. Matthieu Vandamme (ParisTech), and Dr. Martin MOSQUET (Holcim).
