Abstract

The leaching characteristics of cement-fly ash pastes were investigated by MIP, XRD and TG. The results show that the microstructure of hardened cement-fly ash paste deteriorates partly after leaching of soft water. At the leaching duration of 180 days, the hardened paste containing fly ash deteriorated a little more serious than the plain cement paste, but the incorporation of fly ash in a proper ratio was helpful to defer the trend of deterioration of the hardened paste microstructure. The microstructural stability of hardened cement-fly ash paste wasn’t damaged severely during the 180 days leaching duration.
