Concrete aggregates properties crushed by jaw and impact ...
The coarse aggregates obtained by different crushing mechanisms (jaw and impact crushers) show very similar characteristics in terms of binder content assessed by acid leaching (27.5 and 26.6 wt.%), water absorption (8.76 and 9.75 wt.%) and porosity (18.6 and 20.2 vol.%).Thus, it is not possible to conclude that any of these mechanisms are more efficient in removing the cement paste …
