Here, we demonstrate the assembly of a new stable lanthanide-based metal-organic framework (MOF), Eu(HDPB)(phen) (1) (HDPB = (1,1ʹ:3ʹ,1ʹʹ-terphenyl)-3,3ʹʹ,5,5ʹʹ-tetracarboxylic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), with a three-dimensional framework under solvothermal conditions. 1...
X-ray computed tomography (XCT), a non-destructive test, was used to study three dimensional (3D) meso-defect volume distribution changes of cement paste due to carbonation. The 3D meso-defect volume from 0.02mm3 ~5mm3 before and after carbonation was analyzed through add-on modules of 3D defect analysis. The experimental results show that the meso-defect volume fraction before and after carbonation are 0.7685% and 2.44%, respectively. After carbonation, the smaller defect increased significantly than the bigger defect.
