Synthesis of alkali-silica reaction product structurally identical to that formed in field concrete

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) can cause expansion and cracking of concrete. Despite significant progress over the past 80 years, the molecular structures of the ASR products remain poorly understood. These reaction products are present in very small amounts within concrete aggregates, which severely...
