Types of Concrete Carbonation

Concrete can be subjected to two distinct types of carbonation, weathering carbonation and early age carbonation. The CarbonCure Technology uses early age carbonation to sequester CO₂ into concrete. The document explores both types of carbonation in more detail.

CarbonCure Ready Mix Technology Trial Results

Industrial pilot testing results of the carbonated ready mix concrete are presented in this technical note. The process created nanocrystalline carbonate reaction products that positively effected the early hydration and the compressive strength. The carbonated concrete was as much as 20% stronger than the control concrete without any compromise in pore solution pH or risk for chloride penetrability.

Impact of CO₂ Utilization in Fresh Concrete on Corrosion

This document explains the difference between early carbonation and atmospheric carbonation, and how early carbonation has a benign impact on steel corrosion. A detailed description of why early carbonation does not increase the risk of steel corrosion is included.

CarbonCure Masonry Specification Insert

Recommended specification language for incorporating concrete masonry units that have undergone in-situ carbon dioxide (CO₂) mineralization using the CarbonCure Technology into concrete masonry specifications and/or procurement policies.
