Hydration properties of magnesium phosphate cement paste mixed with metakaolin and silica fume
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Magnesium phosphate cement (MPC) exhibits a faster setting time and higher early strength, making it suitable for crack repair. However, its application in civil engineering is hindered by its fast initial hydration rate and poor water resistance. To address these limitations, metakaolin (MK) and silica fume (SF) were utilized to enhance the properties of MPC. The effects of MK and SF on the setting time, compressive strength, water resistance, hydration process, and microstructure of MPC were investigated. The results demonstrate that both MK and SF significantly prolong the setting time of MPC and improve its water resistance. The main hydration products of MPC, after incorporating MK and SF, are k‐struvite (MgKPO 4 ·6H 2 O) and unreacted MgO. The presence of MgSiO 3 and AlPO 4 also contributes to the enhancement of compressive strength and water resistance. The incorporation of MK and SF actively participates in the hydration reaction of the MPC system. Furthermore, MgSiO 3 and AlPO 4 intertwine with MKP, resulting in a denser internal structure of the cured MPC, thereby improving its water resistance.
