A freshly made Portland cement paste is a very unusual fluid. It behaves like a colloidal suspension, although cement particles are much coarser than conventional colloid size. The origins of this colloidal behaviour of a cement paste have been traced to high density and high viscosity of the paste

Evaluation of effects of C A and SOA contents in Portland cement on its compressive strengt6, hydrat!on rate and products. Three cement samples varFing in C3A content and one varying in SO 3 content were used, hydrated initially at three temperatures. Compressive strength, bound water content, free
In as series of cements made out of clinkers with variable C3A/C4AF ratios and containing different amounts of gypsum, the strength development and the composition of the hydrated material were studied. For a single clinker composition the obtained strength appears to be just a function of porosity.
