Funded Activity Summary

Development of innovative cement binders with low carbon footprint. Development of innovative cement binders with low carbon footprint. This project aims to develop innovative low carbon cement formulations for the Australian construction industry. It will design new binder formulations that include a high level clinker replacement and achieve high early strength by controlling early hydration reactions (< 24 hrs) through combining admixtures. Using geochemistry to improve early hydration, it will use commonly available supplementary cementitious materials to prepare low carbon concrete. This research is expected to transform the Australian construction industry by developing higher performing, more durable structures with dramatically lower embodied carbon dioxide and improved life-cycle costs.
