In tests conducted on blended Type K expansive cements, it was observed that in fine blends, the main expanding particles (C4A3~) and sulfates deplete faster compared to identical coarser blends because the fine blends have a larger number of expansive sites. This can decrease the expansion time and
This paper discusses the theories of expansion in sulfoaluminate type expansive cements. There are two major schools of thought: the Crystal Growth Theory and the Swelling Theory. According to the first school, expansion is caused by the growth of ettringite crystals from the surfaces of the expan
