Estimating the term…
A novel methodology for rapid, cost-efficient discovery, identification, or improvement of additives and/or admixtures for hydratable cementitious compositions. Multiple formulations comprising hydratable cementitious compositions are deposited into a plurality of receptacles. A first assay output is obtained, such as through Raman spectroscopy, which is then correlated to provide a second assay output value corresponding to physical or chemical properties of the cementitious compositions.
An assay method for testing cementitious compositions, comprising:
The assay method of claim 12 wherein said first assay output values are inputted into a central processing unit and transformed into a spectra graph illustrated on a monitor screen.
An assay method for simultaneous testing of a plurality of hydratable cementitious composition samples containing one or more additives or admixtures, comprising:
