A consistent thermodynamic database for cement materials

In the context of waste confinement and, more specifically, waste from the nuclear industry, concrete is used both as a confinement and as a building material. Alteration processes in contact with clayey formations are also of interest in the context of deep disposal. The present work aims to propose a collection of thermodynamic properties for geochemical calculation in cementitious media. This selection is extended to zeolites and clay minerals in the context of cement/clay interactions. Finally, because temperature is of importance in such contexts, the temperature dependency of the thermodynamic functions is also considered here. Uncertainties remain concerning especially katoite, and some low temperature zeolites like phillipsite, chabazite or gismondine
