This paper presents an interesting comparison of portland cement and alite concrete (or mortar). The alite contained 1.4 and 2.8% SO 3 (3 and 6% gypsum, respectively). The purpose of this discussion is twofold: (I) compare results on alite mortar with those on alite pastes previously published by K

Drs. Ftikos and Philippou have performed a very interesting study on the preparatior~ and hydration of C2S rich cements (1). The value of energy reduction in being able to lower the burning temperature from 1450"C to 1300 "C for belile rich cements is mentioned by the authors.
The authors (1) have undertaken a very useful study in examining the carbonation of synthetic ettringite in 5 vol. % CO 2 gas at 25°C and 95% relative humidity in a moist CO 2 incubator at water/solid ratios 0-3.5 by measuring the kinetics of carbonation and the chemical and morphological changes in
