Study on the influence of zeolite nanoparticles on selected properties of portland cement

Introduction. Cement microstructure imaging is an emerging field of non-destructive compositional investigation. Some data may be available via one method but not the other due to various physical and chemical mechanisms that could cause cement decay. In order to quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate cement stone, it is necessary to investigate it as a complex multi-phase composite material, identify its crystalline phases, and estimate the precise size of its nanoparticles.
