Abstract

Abstract Progress in understanding hydration mechanisms of alite and Portland cement is reviewed. Up to the end of the induction period, dissolution rates determined by the undersaturation of the solution dominate the reaction, but, better understanding is needed about the alite solution interface. The main heat evolution peak hydration is dominated by the growth of outer C-S-H with a spiky or “needle” like morphology. Growth is rapid over several hours (acceleration period) and then slows (deceleration period). At later ages the consumption of water and lack of water filled pores above about 10 nm, along with the consumption of anhydrous material are major factors leading to the continual reduction in the rate of reaction. There is no evidence that diffusion becomes the rate controlling mechanism even at this stage. The microstructure of cement differs significantly from that of alite, largely due to the influence of alumina on C-S-H growth and distribution.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
