Feasibility of using recycled glass in architectural cement mortars (2011, result): “Similar observations concerning the effect of MK on the water absorption of concrete were also reported by other researchers [33].”
Properties of architectural mortar prepared with recycled glass with different particle sizes (2011, result): “Similar observations concerning the effect of metakaolin on the water absorption characteristic of concrete was also reported by Khatib and Clay [27].”
Influence of metakaolin and silica fume on the heat of hydration and compressive strength development of mortar (2011, background): “The incorporation of MK increases the sulphate resistance of mortar [Khatib andWild, 1998], the penetration resistance of chloride ions [Courard et al., 2003] and reduces thewater penetration into concrete by capillary action [Khatib and Clay, 2004].”
Transport properties in metakaolin blended concrete (2010, background): “Khatib and Clay [19] measured the water absorption of concrete by capillary suction after 90 days of curing and reported that for 15% metakaolin, the coefficient of water absorption reduced by 30%.”
Microstructure, hydration and nanomechanical properties of concrete containing metakaolin (2015, background): “Khatib and Clay [29] have found that there was a systematic reduction in absorption by capillary action with the increase in MK content in concrete.”
Improving strength, drying shrinkage, and pore structure of concrete using metakaolin (2008, background): “Moreover, the use of MK in concrete in its present form is relatively a new concept [7].”
Sorption Characteristics of Foam Concrete (2007, background): “Typical binary images (a) for cement–sand mix (b) scale (c) for c pores, whereas sorptivity (capillary absorption rate) in addition to pore volume is also affected by the fineness, discontinuity and the level of tortuosity [13,31].”
