✦ Synopsis
The use of temperatures higher than 30°0 during the hydration of 1:3 high alumina cement mortar leads to the formation of the cubic hydra te C3AH~, hence avoiding the conversion of CAHIo to C3AH 6. The subsequent-carbonation of 03AH 6 with 002 and therm~l treatm@nt leads to the formation of stable carbonated pRases. The optimum hydration the minimum necessary times to get 03AH~: 3 hours at 8000, ages are 6 hours at 60°C. The product is in a state we ca~l "semiplastic" in which the next structural transformation -carbonation -occurs more easily than when the specimens have a rigid structure, The effect of a super-water-reducing admixture has also been studied.
