Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Carbon neutrality and peak carbon dioxide emissions are currently hot topics for the sustainable development of our world. Some novel composite cementitious materials containing various kinds of solid waste have been developed to reduce the carbon footprint of concrete. Some novel cements with low carbon dioxide emissions have been studied. Their hydration mechanism and properties are not same as those of typical Portland cement. The relationships of their composition, microstructure, and properties have been comprehensively investigated. Therefore, this Special Issue invites the submission of articles related to the preparation and microstructural characteristics of novel composite cementitious materials, as well as their properties and applications in different fields. This Special Issue may be very useful for readers to gain a greater understanding of novel composite cementitious materials. For the authors, this Special Issue will be a good opportunity for publication after peer review by expert researchers in cementitious materials. Review articles by experts in the field will also be welcome.
