Several researchers have been using an X-ray diffraction technique to examine the orientation of calcium hydroxide crystals at the interface between cement paste and aggregate. Recently, however, the use of X-ray diffraction for this purpose has been called into question because the goniometer sweep
The cement paste in the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) around aggregate particles has a significantly higher porosity than bulk cement paste. This elevated porosity will effect the transport properties of concrete. The penetration of Wood's metal into concrete samples indicates that the porosity
