Mango seed derived hydrochar as a sustainable additive in cementitious materials: microstructural and performance analysis
This study explores the viability of mango seed hydrochar (MSH), synthesized through hydrothermal carbonization (HTC), as a sustainable supplementary cementitious material. Incorporating MSH at an optimal 1.5 % replacement level significantly enhanced mortar performance, achieving compressive and flexural strengths of 41.7 MPa and 7.2 MPa, respectively surpassing the control mix. Advanced characterization techniques including powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), BET, and Micro-CT confirmed improved pozzolanic activity, increased mesoporosity, and refined matrix densification. The results demonstrate MSH potential to enhance microstructural integrity and support eco-efficient, non-structural cementitious applications.
