Zusammenfassung: | Differential scanning calorimety (DSC) was used to investigate the properties of gel pore water in hardened cement paste (hcp). By comparing heating and cooling thermograms using a step scanning procedure evidence was found for new phase transitions due to structured water. The new transitions occur at −31 °C and −24 °C during cooling. On drying the transitions vanish near relative humidities of 70% and 88%, respectively. An approximately cylindrical shape was deduced for the gel pores. The sorption hysteresis was also investigated. |
