Concrete also typically has gravel mixed in too. Concrete after it hardens [it doesn't just "dry"] it is basically a rock. Rock don't require oxygen to maintain their cohesive density. If you put wet concrete in a vacuum it will dry/harden just fine. The quality of the concrete might be reduced because of the accelerated moisture removal via the vacuum.

rock may not need oxygen to survive but some rocks require moisture or they will break and crumble. some actually crumble and rot after being exposed to oxygen. concrete is almost as hard as rock as its made up of rock mostly but its not uniform so it will always have disadvantages.

Because the process is a chemical reaction, it's not drying or hardening. The correct term would be setting or curing. Specifically, concrete is said to be set once it is stiff enough not to deform under pressure, such as someone walking on it. Concrete is said to be cured once it reaches full design strength. Generally speaking, drying would imply that water leaving the mixture causes the change, and hardening would imply a physical process (such as work hardening) is causing the change.

As a masonry contractor, I'm quite familiar with the properties of concrete. Concrete will even set up even under water. The reason the concrete set up slightly slower in the vacuum isn't because of lack of air but rather lack of air movement. Mortar on a corner of a building will set up faster than the rest of the wall because it experiences more air movement like wind reducing the moisture content. While this does make it set up slightly faster it does not strengthen the concrete in the long run. In fact wetting the concrete and keeping it wet during the first 7 days of the concrete cure will increase the cure time slightly but can greatly increase the strength of the concrete when fully cured, as well as more evenly cure preventing cracks.

Water boils and turns to vapor as the pressure goes down. So I would expect it to harden faster as the water is forcibly sucked out of the concrete. But I guess at some point right below the surface, the weight (and thus pressure) of the concrete is higher than 1 atmosphere, so the water remains a liquid internally.

@@cyleleghorn246 Yeah, perhaps on the surface as you said. But in the industry we call concrete "green" when it's still in it's initial cure period and at this point it is susceptible to easy damage and is the color green. This is why when concrete is "green" you do not want people walking on it. When you watch the video, the concrete in the vacuum actually cured a little slower and was greener and crumbled more. If there's high winds when you're working with concrete or mortar it set's up crazy fast because the air is pulling the moisture out of the concrete, this wouldn't happen in a vacuum.

@@Ryan-ff2db thank you for explaining it more. It does make sense that as concrete cures with an exothermic reaction (releases heat) that wind will speed up the process by giving it wind chill. And in a vacuum, since there is no wind or even air to conduct the heat away from the concrete, this would become a blackbody radiation problem, which is the slowest way to get rid of heat. Same reason it's so easy for space ships to overheat in space due to human warmth and electronics, even though at all the same settings they'd be running very cold anywhere on earth surrounded by air or touching the ground. There's just nowhere for the heat to go, nothing for it to travel into to escape the ship, or in the case of this video, to escape the concrete and allow the reaction to continue

I may be mistaken, but concrete is a product of hydration, where the water allows the cement particles to come together around a molecule of water. Considering that there is hydraulic cement, which doesn't need oxygen to make. The hydrating water is essentially locked in a crystal cage. The only thing that a vacuum might do is lower the vapor pressure which allows the water to escape the cement. Probably not enough to free the bound water, but it might require less energy when you apply heat to it. If you apply enough heat, the water breaks out of the concrete, and you're back to the initial ingredients. Limestone is an example of a rock which needs water to be in rock form. If you heat it, it turns into burnt lime (Calcium Oxide). I think there are some products which might be weak enough where a vacuum might liberate the water molecules.. maybe gypsum or epsom salts. Vacuum distillation and vacuum drying is a think (freeze drying is forcing the water to crystallize and sublime out). Interesting question, but boring answer ;)

I worked with concrete years ago. During that time I learned or was told several things not mentioned in your video. 1- A normal pour (like homeowner sidewalk) would harden enough to walk over it in a day or two. Bad idea. It isn't set enough. A full set time would normally be over 3 weeks. But long before that it would survive normal wear and tear (walking or bicycling on it). A day or two is too soon. 2- Stronger mixes (more cement) cure faster and get hotter. And the strength may be needed for a "structural" application. 3- A standard guide would be to cover fresh concrete for a day or so. Why? Because some of the water trapped inside couldn't evaporate if the outer surface has hardened and dried. And you would prefer the concrete to "set" from the inside out. 4- Water is trapped inside curing concrete and it takes time to dry. Harry Homeowner makes a BBQ pit and uses it too soon. Then it blows up as the trapped water turns to steam inside the mortar. 5- Concrete is formulated for various applications, often by adding chemicals before mixing. Some make it set faster, as you would want in cold weather. You want it setting before the water in it can freeze. Or you add a chemical that entrains air within the concrete. "Air-entrained concrete contains billions of microscopic air cells per cubic foot. These air pockets relieve internal pressure on the concrete by providing tiny chambers for water to expand into when it freezes." Minor comment that is normal for all of us. We frequently swap "cement" and "concrete." as you did in the video.

@@vksasdgaming9472 Both: the reaction with oxygen and/or water and/or CO2 is what makes It harden, but water needs to be removed slowly, so the cement slurry or concrete has the desired porosity, texture and elasticity. Kinda similar to how important is removing water gradually when baking bread or cakes. P.S.: There is the exception of using hydrophillic cement, since It is designed to harden when damp and inside/besides water. In that case, only the reaction with water matters.

From Wikipedia: "Recent research (2023) found that lime clasts, previously considered a sign of poor aggregation technique, react with water seeping into any cracks. This produces reactive calcium, which allows new calcium carbonate crystals to form and reseal the cracks." Honestly, that's pretty freakin' genius.

I just watched this one, I love your vacuum chamber did you build it or buy it? The landscape stone you used may not be just concerned. The company I worked for, which I'm not moving right now, would donate their solid waste from paint and polymers to mix into concrete for landscaping stones. This was an environmentally safe way of disposing of solid paint waste. As well as it added strength to the landscaping stones and they could use it for coloring I believe as well it was told to me. I don't know if having a polymer in the Stone as a binding agent to the concrete would add anything else to it. I was also wondering if it had any air pockets in it that would pull the air out during the vacuum. I'd be interested to see what that vacuum chamber would do to certain natural stones or geodes since they usually carry some level of moisture or air pockets in natural stones.

What affect concrete more than Oxygen is just plain 'ol common air. Down south like where I work in Texas, that is not an issue. Up in the Northern states though concrete needs 2.3 to about 9% air. This is to allow it to expand and contract with the freezing temps without cracking. When temperatures get to below freezing the concrete (unlike freezing water), concrete squeezes in on itself. When the temps go up to the 80-100's the concrete expands, like water does when it freezes. This expanding and contracting over time can cause the concrete to crack if it is above ground and exposed to the weather. The air in the concrete acts like the expansion joints do and give the concrete some give. The cracking issue is compounded if it is wet out. Rain will soak into the top layer for up to ¾ of an inch while the rest stays dry. The air in the concrete gives it enough buffer to keep the wet layer and the dry part intact.

A few points here: - For concrete to turn to dust, you'd need to pull it to it's tensile breaking point. Which is roughly 3Mpa (mega pascal) for homemade concrete. - Mpa is a measurement of force of impact on a certain area. It's important how big the area of measurement is. Let's say the area is 1cm square. In this case a vacuum or anything else would need to pull with 30kg of force on every single square cm of that concrete piece to reduce it to dust. Quite a lot of force on such a small area. Another way to look at it is if for example you attach a 3x3 inches metal plate with glue to concrete. You'd need around 170kg (375 pounds) of pulling force on that steel plate to pull concrete apart. If the glue is strong enough that is. - Concrete takes a whole month to fully cure, but it reaches 60% of it's strength in a day. I'm a construction engineer by trade, so I know a lot about concrete. - An additional point to all curious about why concrete falls apart, it is because of carbon dioxide (CO2) it bonds with hidroxides in cured concrete, reduces it's ph value, and returns it to it's more natural form - limestone components so it crumbles away. So essentially in space concrete is everlasting, there is no co2 to chemically destabilize it. While in Earth's atmosphere it's destined to fail the moment it's made.

Is it "destined" to fail literally, as in if the mixtures is poured/cured in atmosphere, it's already been exposed to factors that inevitably lead to failure? Or is it the sustained presence of atmospheric variables that _eventually_ lead to failure? I'm wondering if it's possible to replicate concrete in vacuum, and if possible, if it would have a positive impact on the materials durability/properties.

@@Nikolai18A You can pour concrete in vacuum, it's an anaerobic chemical reaction, it needs no air to cure. Its also common practice and desirable to cure test samples of concrete underwater for 28 days so the tests have as little as possible sample deviation. The carbonatization process is constant, the concrete absorbs CO2 from atmosphere for years and decades, and very slowly but surely loses it's properties. It's also not that it loses its integrity altogether, it loses some, it's rather that it gets much higher acidity and rebar inside corrodes and then breaks apart, then what was standard pressure can break the same construction easily. That's why you see rebar exposed and corroded and breakaway concrete on old buildings. So yeah as long as we live, CO2 is present in the atmosphere and standard Portland Cement made concrete from limestone is inevitably gonna fail.

I'd guess if the vacuum is strong enough and is maintained continuously while curing concrete, you'd lose a lot of water through increased evaporation, might get dryer than Ideal. There's probably also more bubbles caused by boiling water. I guess micro bubbles on the surface and/or a lessened curing at the surface because of a deficit of water near the surface probably explains the slight colour difference in your experiment.

As a builder I offer the following clarification on the terminology for those who are interested: Concrete is a combination of cement, fine aggregate (sand) and course aggregate (sharp rocks). Sand & Cement mixed together without the course aggregate is called Sand & Cement which is also called Mortar (for bonding bricks) or Grout (used between your tiles). Sand & Cement mixed with Clay is called Render. Originally though, Mortar was made from only Sand and Lime as Cement was too expensive for most applications. The advantage of this mix being that Sand & Lime can be recycled if it is ground down and remixed with water to make wet Mortar again. With all of these cement based products, additional additives can also be added to improve plasticity, accelerate drying times, delay drying times or even to make the product less permeable to water, depending on the desired application. The faster you cure concrete the more it cracks. And cement based products shrink as they cure, so products like “non-shrink grout” overcome this because they have an additive that expands the product slightly as it cures while the cement shrinks at the same time, therefore the net effect is “non-shrink”.

I think it might crack assuming there are air/gas bubbles trapped into it. But since it's poreous might stay in place (definitly not turning into dust, though...). As for the wet one, I don't believe it will dry well since the "drying" is a réaction between cement and water wich will boil. But then it will stay in gas form in the chamber so might react a bit...dunno...let's see :) After watching, I was part right...and thus part wrong ^^ I'm quite surprised to see water did not evaporate before reacting with cement.

Most concrete is air-entrained concrete. pulling a vacuum may remove some of the air and cause some micro-fissures, but that's about it. Excessive water in the mix causes more damage by evaporating due to the heat generated by the exothermic reaction between the cement and water. This process does cause cracks and fissures whereby more water can seep into the concrete, and in the case of roadways or other outdoor structures, cause corrosion the rebar and freeze that damage in the concrete itself.

@tiberiusG
@tiberiusG Жыл бұрын
Originally I would have assumed that it would stay as is in vacuo, since concrete formation is a chemical not a physical process. My lay reasoning behind this is that concrete doesn't get its compression strength from atmospheric pressure, it gets it from the exothermic reactions and chemical bonds that occur and form while the concrete is setting. So introducing concrete to a vacuum surely should not cause it to crumble or lose any of its structural integrity or even any of its properties seen under normal atmospheric conditions. But on second thought I was considering the fact that concrete is actually quite porous and the lack of inward pressure against the concrete could cause enough outward pressure from the air pockets inside the concrete to generate enough cracks to allow the concrete to crumble. So after a little more consideration, I would assume that either A- No, or B- Depends on how porous the concrete is or possibly other aspects of its inner structure or makeup. Probably wrong, just a guess.

People are missing the point. The hypothetical "removal of oxgen" means all oxygen everywhere -- and tied up in mixtures, compounds, and molecules. Not just air. And the question asked @ 3:44 "Does concrete need air to dry?" is not quite a correctly-worded question. The water added to concrete does not "dry" per se, but the water actually becomes part of the concrete and binds chemically to the other ingredients in the concrete (as he explains beginning @6:50). That's why concrete gets stronger if you keep it wet while it's curing.

Curing concrete in a vacuum chamber vs in air would affect it if you had a larger time period. As a way cement cures is that the CaO in the cement bonds with CO2 in the air which turns the lime (CaO) into limestone (CaCO3) which is also why the concrete exposed to air was more of a whiteish color. And in a vacuum obviously you don't have any CO2. So in the long term this would actually have a pretty big difference in the strength of the 2 concrete samples.

I think one reason of this myth is because when cement/concrete as cured and is total dry. If the concrete is used to hold Weight (Bridge/Building) It would have already a stress to stay in one piece. Right now, as we all know we are living with Air that is about 15PSI on our Shoulder. If those 15psi of pressure would be gone, all the concrete that support weight would be easier to crumble because the outside pressure would be 0psi meanwhile, some air particle in the concrete would try to expand with those 15psi stuck in it. It wouldn't become "dust" but it would definitely have tendency to crack much faster and then crumble.

I see it as a major issue in western education because the distinction between elements and elemental substances, one of the core distinctions that has existed for 150 years is never made in Western schools and instead they cling to the old school style (no pun intended) of "oxygen is an element that forms the basis of the water molecule and which is a gas at room temperature", which is essentially just two very different things given the same name. In Soviet-based schools the very first theoretical lesson always highlights heavily that a distinction should be made between oxygen as an type of atoms and oxygen as a "non-compound substance", as we call it, with easily observable physical properties like it being a gas, having no smell and so forth, and every textbook has as one of its very first tasks a list of statements where students have to decide if the statement applies to an element or a non-compoind substance. Wonder if trying to teach that in Western schools will get me into trouble for teaching definitions that don't match what the majority learns within the same community thus creating potential miscommunication which is like the opposite of how science should work.

I think curing concrete in a vacuum will remove any excess water, since the excess water will quickly evaporate in the vacuum. You cannot mix concrete with water in a vacuum. Concrete will react with any excess water over a very long time period, years in the case of my garage floor. In that long time period, the concrete will gradually get harder. Using a diamond saw to cut concrete will depend on whether the concrete is "old" or "green", where "green" is another term for concrete that is only a day or so old. The length of time for green concrete to fully cure will depend on the formulation, temperature, and water. Some additives can accelerate the cure, while others can delay it. Green concrete is quite easy to cut, while old concrete can be much harder to cut. The demonstration video only tested green concrete. If the time had been extended much longer, the vacuum-ed concrete might be measurably weaker than the fully cured concrete.
