Quantitative Imaging of Clinker and Cement Microstructure

April 15, 2015
Author(s)
Paul E. Stutzman, Jeffrey W. Bullard, Pan Feng
The combination of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with X-ray microanalysis and image processing provides a powerful ability to image and quantify microstructural features of con- struction materials. This document provides guidance for collecting

Multi-Scale Investigation of the Performance of Limestone in Concrete

December 1, 2014
Author(s)
Dale P. Bentz, Ahmad Ardani, Tim Barrett, Scott Z. Jones, Didier Lootens, Max A. Peltz, Taijiro Sato, Paul E. Stutzman, Jussara Tanesi, Jason Weiss
Limestone (calcium carbonate) has long been a critical component of concrete, whether as the primary raw material for cement production, a fine powder added to the binder component, or a source of fine and/or coarse aggregate. This paper focuses on the

Characterization of Metal Powders Used for Additive Manufacturing

September 16, 2014
Author(s)
John A. Slotwinski, Edward J. Garboczi, Paul E. Stutzman, Chiara F. Ferraris, Stephanie S. Watson, Max A. Peltz
Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques can produce complex, high-value metal parts, with potential applications as critical parts such as those found in aerospace components. The production of AM parts with consistent and predictable properties requires

Uncertainty in Bogue-Calculated Phase Composition of Hydraulic Cements

July 1, 2014
Author(s)
Paul E. Stutzman
The Bogue calculations of cement composition are used for manufacturing process control and cement classification. While it is commonly understood that the Bogue calculations are estimates with potential intrinsic biases, the magnitudes of such biases are

Corrosion Detection in Concrete Rebars Using a Spectroscopic Technique

January 11, 2014
Author(s)
Edward J. Garboczi, Paul E. Stutzman, Shuangzhen S. Wang, Nicos Martys, Dat Duthinh, Virgil Provenzano, Shin G. Chou, David F. Plusquellic, Jack T. Surek, Sung Kim, Robert D. McMichael, Mark D. Stiles, Ahmed M. Hassan
Detecting the early corrosion of steel in reinforced concrete is a goal that has been much pursued. Since 2010, NIST has been working on a large project to develop an electromagnetic (EM) probe that detects the actual corrosion products via spectroscopic

Measurement and Simulation of Millimeter Wave Scattering Cross-sections from Steel-Reinforced Concrete

January 11, 2014
Author(s)
Ahmed M. Hassan, Edward Garboczi, Robert McMichael, Jack T. Surek, Mark D. Stiles, David F. Plusquellic, Virgil Provenzano, Paul E. Stutzman, Shuangzhen S. Wang, Sung Kim, Michael D. Janezic, Jason Coder, Nicos Martys, David R. Novotny
Some iron oxide corrosion products exhibit antiferromagnetic magnetic resonances (AFMR) at around 100 GHz at normal temperatures. AFMR can be detected in laboratory conditions, which serves as the basis for a new non-destructive spectroscopic method for

Application of physical and chemical characterization techniques to metallic powders

August 28, 2013
Author(s)
Edward J. Garboczi, John A. Slotwinski, Max A. Peltz, Chiara F. Ferraris, Stephanie S. Watson, Paul E. Stutzman
Systematic studies have been done on two different powder materials used for additive manufacturing: stainless steel and cobalt-chrome. The characterization of these powders is important in NIST efforts to develop appropriate measurements and standards for

Physical and chemical characterization techniques for metallic powders

August 28, 2013
Author(s)
John A. Slotwinski, Paul E. Stutzman, Stephanie S. Watson, Edward J. Garboczi, Max A. Peltz, Chiara F. Ferraris
Systematic studies have been done on two different powder materials used for additive manufacturing: stainless steel and cobalt-chrome. An extensive array of characterization techniques were applied to these two powders. The physical techniques included

Hydrated Phases in Blended Cement Systems and Synthetic Saltstone Grouts

June 10, 2013
Author(s)
Kenneth A. Snyder, Paul E. Stutzman
A blended binder system (10 % portland cement, 45 % fly ash, and 45 % slag) is characterized as part of a broader study of its long-term effectiveness in stabilizing treated salt waste at the Savannah River Site. The binder system is reproduced in the
