Our model reactor Start: A mix of 1 g of crushed aggregate and 0.5 g
Ca(OH)2 is introduced in a closed stainless steel
container. After 30 min preheating up to 80 8C, 10 ml
of 0.79 M KOH solution is added. The container is
then autoclaved for different time intervals at 80 8C to
accelerate ASR under controlled temperature
