Abstract

This article is focused on cement based composites. Two cements differing in mineralogical composition are utilised as main binder in composites mixtures. Results of measured physical parameters of studied materials are presented. For the sake of comparison, a reference material with Portland cement was also prepared. Basic physical properties (measured by water vacuum saturation method and by helium pycnometry), characterizations of pore system (determined by mercury porosimetry) and mechanical properties are the matter of this study. Composites show various open porosity; the results of open porosity of materials containing special cements show higher values, in comparison with composite based on Portland cement. This fact of course influences other material characteristics - mainly mechanical properties.
