Abstract

The spatial arrangement of the graphite inside the cement-based materials has been studied using neutron tomography. The large differences in the neutron attenuation coefficients for the graphite and cement phases and the application of mathematical algorithms for an analysis of the three-dimensional reconstructed data allowed us to obtain the distributions of the average sizes, orientation and shape-related parameters of the graphite particles in studied cement samples. The results of calculations of the elastic properties of the graphite contented cement materials based on the obtained structural features of the morphology of graphite phase are presented.
