Influence of temperature on phase assemblages of belite-ye'elimite cement

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Natechanok Chitvoranund, Diana Londoño Zuluaga

This paper studies the effect of temperature on the phase assemblages of belite-ye'elimite cement. A comparison is made between thermodynamic modelling and experimental data at 28 and 180 days of hydration at 5, 20, 40, and 60 degrees C. The fast reaction ...
