Research directed at developing a new composite expansive additive for use in producing shrinkage-compensating cement by addition to Portland cement is reported. Setting time, flow loss, free expansion, restrained expansion and compressive strength results were obtained for cement pastes and mortars

✦ Synopsis
The expansion characteristics of a newly developed compoundedexpansive additive (CEA) and a pre-hydrated high alumina cement based particulate expansive additive are reported. Effect of temperature during pre-hydration and drying of high alumina cement is studied. The quick setting mechanism and volume stability of expansive cements containing different types of expansive additives am also discussed. It is apparent that high temperature treatment, an integral step in the production of prehydrated high alumina cement, will significantly reduce the expansion value and delayed expansion development. The compounded-expansive additive has desirable expansion characteristics with potential industrial application.
