Table 3 illustrates the proportional designs of MOSC paste. According to previous studies, high content of LBM can result in high pH of cement paste and poor cement strength development while low content of LBM can cause to low amorphous phase and poor performance of cement [35].The present study established the a-MgO to …



Some studies showed that the soluble phosphorus and fluorine in the PG would react with Ca(OH) 2 produced by cement hydration and then generate precipitates coating the surface of the cement particles, which would restrict cement hydration causing longer setting time and lower early strength [38], [39], [40]. Therefore, it is essential to …



Building elements made of phosphogypsum, such as wallboards and similar construction elements, give yield to high values of radon emanation together with the mentioned elevated concentrations of 226 Ra. Phosphogypsum can be used in Portland cement as a setting time retarder in amounts below 4–5 wt%; then, it is diluted in the concrete and ...



Phosphogypsum (PG) is a by-product generated from the phosphorus fertilizer industry (phosphoric acid production). PG is similar to natural gypsum, but there are some differences, of which it contains some impurities such as water-soluble phosphate (P 2 O 5), water-soluble fluoride (F −) and P 2 O 5 substituted in the gypsum crystal …







The problem of recycling and storage of phosphogypsum is topical for many countries around the world, as it is associated with environmental problems of pollution of water bodies, land, and atmosphere. Therefore, this paper analyzes the directions of phosphogypsum recycling and possible alternatives to its use. The main …



Phosphogypsum (PG) is a bulk industrial solid waste generated during phosphoric acid manufacturing. This study investigated a novel phosphogypsum-based geopolymer (PBG) cement through L 16 (4 5) orthogonal experiments.The impact of five alkaline activators, including Portland cement clinker (PCC), sulfate alumina cement clinker (SACC), …





In this study, usability of weathered phosphogypsum (PG) from residue areas as set retarder in Portland cement was investigated. The effects on the setting and mechanical properties of PG added in ratios 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 12.5 wt.% to Portland cements were studied and compared with a Portland cement containing natural gypsum …
