CHEMICAL REACTIONS INVOLVING AGGREGATES
A REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE IS MADE CONCERNING CHEMICAL REACTIONS IN CONCRETE INVOLVING AGGREGATES, WITH EMPHASIS ON REACTIONS LEADING TO DETERIORATION BECAUSE THESE REACTIONS HAVE BEEN PARTICULARLY STUDIED AS PROBLEMS OF CONCRETE DURABILITY. DIFFERENT INORGANIC IMPURITIES OR CONTAMINATIONS, OR CONSTITUENTS, OF AGGREGATES ARE CONSIDERED. AN ACCOUNT IS GIVEN ON THE AGGREGATE BOND STRENGTH RELATED TO CHEMICAL REACTIONS IN THE CONTACT PHASE. A PARTICULAR CASE OF DETERIORATION IN HARBOR WORKS IN PORTUGAL IS DESCRIBED. A DETAILED REVIEW OF AVAILABLE PAPERS ON ALKALI-AGGREGATE REACTIONS IS GIVEN. THERE ARE COMMENTS ON SOME SO-FAR UNIDENTIFIED SO-CALLED CEMENT-AGGREGATE REACTIONS IN CANADA AND THE U.S.A. /AUTHOR/
