Research Paper | Vaterite-Based Cement for Precast Architectural Applications: Evaluating Performance, Finish, and Embodied Carbon

This research investigates Fortera's ReAct® Cement, a vaterite-based cement, as a 100% Portland cement replacement for precast architectural applications. It assesses workability, strength, absorption, permeable voids, demoulding, surface quality, and binder carbon emissions at mortar scale.

Hi! My name is Thai Hai An Phung, but I go by Ami. I am a second-year Chemical Engineering student at the University of Toronto. I was born in Vietnam and have had the privilege of living in Myanmar, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, Ukraine, and the UK, where I recently graduated from boarding school.

I am passionate about energy, hydrogen, sustainability, materials science, and innovation, and I am especially interested in how engineering can contribute to scalable solutions for decarbonizing large industries. My research will be focused on evaluating mechanical performance and surface quality of novel carbon-mineralized cement!

Outside of academics, I love travelling, hiking, spending time in nature, exploring different cuisines, following motorsports, and trying new experiences. I am excited to be part of the Laidlaw Scholars Community so please feel free to reach out!
