This study introduces an innovative approach by modifying a commonly used filler with a natural compound, PEI. Fine aggregates within the filler were treated with different contents of PEI solutions. This research thoroughly examined the filler’s pore structure, mineral composition, physical characteristics, and surface morphology. Additionally, this study explored the effects of PEI-treated fine aggregates on the macroscopic features of recycled cement mortar, focusing on aspects like flowability, compressive strength, capillary water absorption, and chloride ion permeability. The findings revealed that treating the fine aggregates with PEI decreased the pore volume by up to 28.2% compared to untreated samples. This improvement in the microstructure may originate from the formation of calcite and its by-products, which occupy the pores with nanoparticles generated in situ. Furthermore, the modification with polyethyleneimine resulted in a wavy, plate-like structure that not only enhanced the surface morphology but also improved the compressive strength and chloride ion permeability. Furthermore, it significantly reduced capillary water absorption by 32% to 51%, thereby enhancing the material’s durability. The present study underscores the superior advantages of PEI modification as a promising strategy to enhance the viability of public fine aggregates. |
