Cement Hydration Models Research Based on Composition Content of each Phase of Minerals

Abstract:

Abstract: Based on the cement hydration kinetics model proposed by R.Berliner, taking into account the factors such as each chemical phase of minerals, curing temperature, water-cement ratio, the final hydration degree and fineness of cement, a theoretical hydration kinetics equations was established in this paper. It can be used to predict the hydration rate and the change of hydration degree.
