Abstract: | The present work aims to provide a better understanding of the effect of both the proportions and the characteristics of slaked lime on the microstructure of a lime-cement-sand mortar. Cement (CPA CEM I 52.5) has been replaced by various categories of slaked lime chosen for the diversity of their physico-chemical characteristics.Cement has been replaced by lime in proportions varying between 0 to 10% of the total binder mass. With very few exceptions, mortars were produced by maintaining the quantity of water constant.Experimental results show that it is necessary to have a high lime substitution percentage to influence the microstructure of the mortar, except in the case of a lime containing magnesium hydroxide or calcic lime featuring sizeable specific surface area.The influence of the nature of the substituted lime on the development of the microstructure in the matrix has been examined by SEM observations of the mortar micro porosity. |
