To enrich this research field, interfacial transition zone between old concrete’ aggregates and new concrete (ITZ-A) and interfacial transition zone between old concrete’ cement mortar and new concrete (ITZ-C) were as research subjects in this study. Their differences were investigated using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. Comparative analysis revealed significant differences in three critical micro parameters: calcium-to-silicon content ratio (Ca/Si), the percentage of enriched region of CH and C-S-H, and microporosity characteristics. ITZ-C has 16.39 % less Ca/Si, 64.11 % less enriched regions of CH, 49.86 % more enriched regions of C-S-H, and 30.96 % less porosity than the ITZ-A. Moreover, ITZ-C porosity was dominated by sub-0.1 μm<sup>2</sup> micropores (45.26 % of total pore area), while ITZ-A exhibited predominant 1–5 μm<sup>2</sup> mesopores (39.08 % of total pore area).
