Mechanical properties, drying shrinkage, and creep of concrete containing lithium slag (2017, background): “Note that MIP is a useful tool and can serve as comparative indices for the connectivity and capacity of the pore systems in hydrated cements although it is not accurate in terms of the measures of the actual pore sizes present [23,24].”
Effect of limestone fillers on microstructure and permeability due to carbonation of cement pastes under controlled CO2 pressure conditions (2015, positive): “By freeze drying, water crystals sublimate which prevents micro cracks formation because of capillary stress if drying passes through the liquid state [34].”
