ASTM C151/C151M-18 is a standard test method that determines the autoclave expansion of hydraulic cement. The test is conducted to evaluate the potential delayed expansion caused by the hydration of certain components, such as CaO or MgO, present in the cement. The expansion of a hardened cement paste is measured when exposed to autoclave conditions.
By subjecting the cement paste to the specified autoclave conditions, this test method provides an index of potential delayed expansion. This is important because excessive expansion can cause cracking and deterioration of the cement, leading to structural problems. Therefore, this test provides a way to assess the quality and suitability of hydraulic cement for various applications.
