✦ Synopsis

M. Relis and J. Soroka conclude in their article (i) that the density of the hydration products varies with the degree of hydration. The density of the hydration products, according to these authors, starts out with a relatively low density, and gradually increase towards a higher value. This variation in density they explain as a result of the difference in density between inner and outer hydration products, and a gradual change in proportion of the two kinds of hydration products, as the hydration proceeds.

Density, expansion and intrinsic shrinkage were studied on hydrated cement compacts made of Portland cement, with and without gypsum, and of different initial porosities. Results confirm former observation that the average density of the hydration products increases as the hydration proceeds reachi

The work described by the above author&) in a study of the effects of salicylaldehyde on WIC, differs in some respects from that carried out by Ball and Tomkins.(2) When normal air-dry WPC is mixed with the aldehyde, an immediate setting reaction occurs, with some yellowing of the mixture. The setti
