Abstract
The deformation capacity conditions several processes in cement-based materials, including workability and structural build-up. However, the origins of this deformation capacity present some ambiguities. This paper aims to contribute to improving the comprehension of the deformation capacity of fresh cement pastes. For this, the effect of water-to-cement ratio (w/c) and superplasticizer (SP) dosage on the viscoelastic properties of cement paste is examined using oscillatory rheology and yield stress measurements. It appears that water to cement ratio affects slightly the critical strain at the end of the linear viscoelastic domain (LVED) and strongly the storage modulus. The addition of superplasticizer seems to have a strong effect on the critical strain. In addition, it was shown that the critical strain at the end of the LVED is associated with strong physical forces (colloidal forces enhanced by early hydrates formation), while the transition strain at the flow onset is due to large structural reorganizations.
期刊介绍：
The Korea-Australia Rheology Journal is devoted to fundamental and applied research with immediate or potential value in rheology, covering the science of the deformation and flow of materials. Emphases are placed on experimental and numerical advances in the areas of complex fluids. The journal offers insight into characterization and understanding of technologically important materials with a wide range of practical applications.
