Performance of High-Efficiency Liquid Cement Setting Accelerator with Alkali-Free and its Acceleration Mechanism

Article Preview

Abstract:

A kind of non-alkali high efficiency liquid cement setting accelerator named ZJ-NSA was developed by regulating the chemical composition of polymerized aluminum sulfate in this paper. The results show that the initial setting time and the final setting time are sharply shortened to 2 minutes 48 seconds and 4 minutes 37 seconds respectively, and the 1 d-aged compressive strength reach to 8.6MPa when it is mixed into P.O42.5 Portland cement with 5% addition; meanwhile, its compressive strength and bending strength retention at the age of 1d and 28d reach to 79.63%, 81.89% and 78.13%, 97.89% respectively. Phase characteristics on the hydrated cement specimens by means of x-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) were analyzed and the acceleration mechanism was discussed.
