Item Study of mechanical, durability and microstructural properties of cementitious composite with addition of different iron ore tailings from Brazil.(2022) Almada, Bruna Silva; Melo, Henrique da Silva Silveira; Duarte, Marlo Souza; Aguilar, Maria Teresa Paulino de; Garcia, Dayana Cristina Silva; Silva, Guilherme Jorge Brigolini; Santos, White José dosBrazil is the second-largest global iron ore producer in the world. Consequently, a large volume of iron ore tailings (IOTs) is generated, which is associated with environmental impacts. IOTs present potential to be used as an addition in cementitious compounds, however, few studies assess how the heterogeneity of this waste can limit its utilization as a building material. Thus, the present study aims to assess whether the heterogeneity of IOTs influences mechanical, durability, and microstructural properties when added to the cementitious composite. Four IOTs samples from different origins were collected and added to cementitious composite at 40% addition content. Composites’ mechanical (compressive strength and modulus of elasticity) and durability properties (water absorption, porosity, electrical resistivity, carbonation, and pH pore solution) were correlated to the microstructure of the IOTs. Results showed that the IOTs from different mines exhibited different physical properties and chemical/mineralogical compositions. Moreover, the higher the degree of ore processing, the lower the heterogeneity, iron content, and specific gravity. Although the IOT samples are heterogeneous, this type of tailing can be used as a filler addition in structural mortars. IOT addition tends to improve the mechanical and durability properties. Heterogeneity most significantly influenced the properties in the fresh state, durability, and microstructural properties. The microstructure of the cement matrix tends to be denser in the IOT-added with higher SSA and silica content. Was observed higher-porosity in regions close to the interfacial transition zone in the samples with coarser IOT.
