Modeling and simulation of cement hydration kinetics and microstructure development (2011, background): “While at the nanostructural level C–S–H gel does not show longrange crystalline order and has many properties associated with colloids [107,108], it is generally believed that at the atomic level it contains many structural features in common with the layered minerals tobermorite and jennite.”
Effect of limestone fillers on microstructure and permeability due to carbonation of cement pastes under controlled CO2 pressure conditions (2015, unknown): “The specific surface area of C–S–H is much higher than the one of bulk paste, for example, low density C–S–H has specific surface area of 250 m/g [49] but only part of this contributes to the average specific surface area of sound paste due to limitation in accessibility of nitrogen to small gel por”
Nanotechnology in concrete – A review (2010, background): “In this colloidal–granular approach, the aging of cement paste due to external influences can be related to changes in the orientation and (re)packing of the nanosized C–S–H particles [62,65].”
