Quantitative Analysis of Cement-Based Materials and Sulfate Attack Products by XRD-Rietveld Analysis

Abstract:

XRD-Rietveld method has been adopted for quantitative analysis of phases in cement powder, phases in mixed samples of cement and pure calcium hydroxide, and sulfate attack products in cement pastes, based on the TOPAS software. The results show that, Rietveld analysis values show good agreement with the actual levels of mixed samples, and the accuracy degree of Rietveld method is at least as well as that of TG/DSC method which is commonly used in quantitative analysis of calcium hydroxide. By adding appropriate internal standard substance, XRD-Rietveld analysis method can be effectively used in quantitative analysis of sulfate attack products in cement-based materials. This work has practical significance on the study of sulfate attack of cement-based material.
