Effect of Elevated Temperature on Mechanical Properties of Limestone, Quartzite and Granite Concrete (2016, background): “Under normal pressure, trigonal quartz (also named a-quartz or low quartz) transforms into hexagonal b-quartz (high quartz) at 573 C, and upon further heating the SiO2 transforms into hexagonal b-tridymite at 870 C and later to cubic b-cristobalite at 1470 C (Wenk and Bulakh 2004; Akhavan 2005).”
High-volume natural volcanic pozzolan and limestone powder as partial replacements for portland cement in self-compacting and sustainable concrete (2014, background): “2a–c, see [35] for petrographic techniques of mineral identification).”
THE IMA–CNMNC DOMINANT-CONSTITUENT RULE REVISITED AND EXTENDED (2008, unknown): “Wenk & Bulakh (2004) proposed, therefore, to use the name 100%/n rule (with n being the number of components).”
