  • Same principle as medical CT scan

– Creates X-ray image of ‘slice’ through object that can make 3D volume – But higher-energy, more focused Synchrotron-based X- rays (higher spatial resolution) – X-ray source is tunable, X-ray radiation is monochromatic, and X-ray beam is flat

  • Applications

Geology, Anthropology, Biology, Medicine, Engineering

Conclusions 1/2 Conclusions 1/2 Conclusions 1/2

(1) The Synchrotron Microtomography technique can provide better understanding of the microstructure change in deteriorated mortar and cement paste. (2)The segmented porosity of the deteriorated mortar was increased by approximately ten times

  • f that of non-deteriorated one. Especially the

effective porosity was increased by approximately twenty times. The diffusion tortuosity was 4 for deteriorated mortar.

SLIDE 37

Conclusions 2/2 Conclusions 2/2 Conclusions 2/2

(3) For cement pastes as the CaO/SiO2 ratio was reduced from 3.6 to 1.8 the effective porosity was increased from 0.14 to 0.33 while the diffusion tortuosity was reduced from 41 to 7. (4) Potential applications to predict transport properties such as diffusivity and permeability are being considered.
