Title in Spanish
Influencia del metacaolin en las propiedades en estado fresco del cemento Portland: hidratación y retracción química.
Keywords in Spanish
Cimento Portland
Cinética química
Resistência dos materiais
Abstract in Spanish
Actualmente los materiales cementicios suplementarios como el metacaolín, son comúnmente empleados en la industria cementera y de la construcción, debido a factores ambientales, económicos y técnicos. La mayoría de estudios que evalúan la influencia del metacaolín en sistemas cementicios, se enfocan en aspectos de desempeño y de resistencia mecánica, en edades avanzadas. Existen pocos estudios que evalúan la etapa inicial de hidratación. Por tanto, este trabajo tiene como propósito entender mejor la influencia que tiene la sustitución parcial de metacaolín en pastas de cemento Portland, durante las primeras 72 horas de hidratación. Normalmente para evaluar la cinética de hidratación se analiza el calor liberado, usando un calorímetro de conducción isotérmico. Sin embargo, otra técnica relativamente nueva usada en este estudio, es medir la retracción química en forma continua; en Brasil son raros los estudios que usen retracción química para obtener la cinética de hidratación. Para tal fin se elaboraron pastas utilizando reemplazos de metacaolín de 5, 10 y 20% en masa, además de una pasta de referencia, usando una relación constante agua/sólido de 0.5. La retracción química fue medida en forma continua automatizando el método de la dilatometría, también se evaluó la cinética de hidratación usando un calorímetro isotérmico. Adicionalmente, el desarrollo de los productos hidratados fue estudiado por análisis termogravimétrico y difracción de rayos X. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que existe una excelente relación entre la retracción química y la calorimetría y que la adición de metacaolín produce cambios en la cinética de hidratación, que también afectan a la retracción química.

Abstract in English
Currently the supplementary cementitious materials such as metakaolin are commonly used in the cement and construction industry, due to environmental, economic and technical factors. Most studies evaluating the influence of metakaolin in cementitious systems focus on aspects of performance and mechanical strength at older ages. There are few studies evaluating the initial stage of hydration. Therefore, this paper aims to better understand the influence of the partial replacement of metakaolin in Portland cement pastes during the first 72 hours of hydration. Normally to evaluate the kinetics of hydration heat released is analyzed using an isothermal calorimeter. Nevertheless, another relatively new technique used in this study is to measure the chemical shrinkage continuously; in Brazil are rare studies using chemical shrinkage to obtain hydration kinetics. This study shows the influence of partial replacement of Portland cement by metakaolin in the hydration reactions and chemical shrinkage of cementitious pastes. For this, pastes were prepared using metakaolin replacements of 5, 10 and 20% by mass, and a reference paste, using a constant water/solid ratio of 0.5. Chemical shrinkage was measured continuously automating the method of dilatometry, hydration kinetics was evaluated using an isothermal conduction calorimetry. Additionally, the development of hydrated products was studied by thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction. The results show that there is an excellent relationship between chemical shrinkage and calorimetry and the addition of metakaolin leads to changes of the hydration kinetics, which also affect the chemical shrinkage.
