β¦ Synopsis
White Portland cement, (a cement containing less than 0.3% iron oxide), reacts rapidly with salicylaldehyde (2-hydroxybenzaldehyde), causing rapid setting and hardening in the absence of added water. One of the reaction products was identified as a calcium complex of salicylaldehyde (CHOC6HsO)zCa. Trimethylsilylation of the White Portland cement (wpc) showed that the polymerisation degree of the silicate anions in the cement was unaffected by the salicylaldehyde. A study of the rate of subsequent hydration in the prescence of additional water indicated that the hydration of the wpc was retarded by the calcium complex.

This paper is the first of a series of three. For Portland cement pastes, it presents a model of the micro-structure and the associated compressive strength law which will be the base of the two following papers. Model and strength law involve that the most important parameter influencing the stren

The dynamics for the hydraulic process of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) were investigated by X-ray diffraction quantitative analysis. The results show that the hardening process of CPC is initially controlled by the dissolution of reactants in a 4-h period and subsequently by diffusion through the
