The hydration characteristics of calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA) and ordinary Portland cement (OPC) blended pastes incorporating calcium sulfate (C) are investigated. The experimental characterization techniques were employed and complemented with thermodynamic calculations to provide in-depth understanding of the hydration of CSA/OPC blended system. The results showed that the hydration of C3S in the CSA/OPC blended pastes was significantly delayed in comparison with the sole OPC paste. The delayed hydration of C3S negatively affected the strength development of the CSA/OPC pastes. As the amount of C increases, the induction period occurring between the initial peak and the intermediate peak was extended, thus increasing the initial setting time. The addition of C to the CSA/OPC blends led to the two phenomena in the hydration of C4A3, (1) retardation of C4A3 hydration, and (2) formation of more ettringite after a few hours of hydration. The thermodynamic calculations indicated that the setting of the CSA/OPC blended system is mainly facilitated by hydration of C4A3 and by the formation of ettringite, while the major strength-giving phase is C-S-H that originates from the hydration of C3S.

硫铝酸钙(CSA)水泥/硅酸盐水泥掺和浆料的水化特性
硫铝酸钙水泥(CSA)和普通硅酸盐水泥(OPC)掺入硫酸钙(C的水泥)的水合特性)进行调查。采用了实验表征技术,并结合了热力学计算,以深入了解CSA / OPC混合体系的水合作用。结果表明,与唯一的OPC浆料相比,CSA / OPC混合浆料中C 3 S的水合作用明显延迟。C 3 S的延迟水合会对CSA / OPC浆料的强度发展产生负面影响。作为C量增大初始峰和中间峰之间的感应时间,从而延长了初始设定时间。C的加法CSA / OPC混合物的混合导致C 4 A 3水合的两种现象,(1)C 4 A 3的阻滞水合,以及(2)水合数小时后形成更多的钙矾石。热力学计算表明,CSA / OPC混合体系的设置主要是由于C 4 A 3的水合并且通过钙矾石的形成,而主要的赋予强度的阶段是CSH,其源自C 3 S的水合。
