Methods of testing cement - Part 9: Heat of hydration - Semi-adiabatic method
This European Standard describes a method of measuring the heat of hydration of cements by means of semi-adiabatic calorimetry, also known as the Langavant method. The aim of the test is the continuous measurement of the heat of hydration of cement during the first few days. The heat of hydration is expressed in joules per gram of cement.
This standard is applicable to all cements and hydraulic binders, whatever their chemical composition, with the exception of quick-setting cements.
NOTE 1 An alternative procedure, called the solution method, is described in EN 196-8. Either procedure can be used independently.
NOTE 2 It has been demonstrated that the best correlation between the two methods is obtained at 41 h for the semi-adiabatic method (EN 196-9) compared with 7 days for the heat of solution method (EN 196-8).
Prüfverfahren für Zement - Teil 9: Hydratationswärme - Teildiabetisches Verfahren
Dieser Teil der Europäischen Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Messung der Hydratationswärme von Zementen mithilfe der teiladiabatischen Kalorimetrie, das so genannte Langavant Verfahren, fest. Ziel dieser Prüfung ist die kontinuierliche Messung der Hydratationswärme von Zement während der ersten Tage. Die Hydratations-wärme wird in Joule je Gramm Zement angegeben.
Diese Europäische Norm ist anwendbar für alle hydraulischen Bindemittel, ungeachtet ihrer chemischen Zusammensetzung, mit Ausnahme von schnell erstarrenden Zementen.
ANMERKUNG 1 Ein anderes Verfahren, das so genannte Lösungsverfahren, ist in EN 196 8 beschrieben. Beide Verfahren können unabhängig voneinander angewendet werden.
ANMERKUNG 2 Es wurde nachgewiesen, dass sich die beste Korrelation zwischen den beiden Verfahren nach 41 h für das teiladiabatische Verfahren (EN 196 9) und nach sieben Tagen für das Lösungsverfahren (EN 196 8) ergibt.
Méthodes d'essais des ciments - Partie 9: Chaleur d'hydratation - Méthodes semi-adiabatique
La présente norme européenne décrit une méthode de mesure de la chaleur d'hydratation des ciments par calorimétrie semi-adiabatique, dite méthode de Langavant. L'essai a pour but de mesurer en continu la chaleur d'hydratation du ciment des tout premiers jours. La présente norme s'applique à tous les liants hydrauliques quelles que soit leur composition chimique, à l'exception des ciments prompts.
