Kinetics of Cement Hydration
I. Pre-induction period (first minutes): Dissolution and saturation, contributing Ca2+ and SO42-. C-S-H forms on the surface of dissolving C3S, thus an increase of the Ca2+ concentration in the liquid phase occurs. Precipitation of CH leads to the dormant period. C3A dissolves, and reacts with SO42- to form AFt, which forms a surface barrier. C4AF […]
