Composition and thermodynamic modeling of calcium sulfoaluminate cement and ordinary Portland cement blends
Calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement and ordinary Portland cement (OPC) blends are innovative hydraulic binders which allow the control of prop erties such as dimensional stability or hardening speed.This article describes the hydration behavior of three different OPCCSA cement blends (85 %-15 %, 70%-30% and 40%-60%).Proportions of hydrates and anhydrous components were determined by thermogravimetric and X-ray diffraction analyses; the Rietveld refinement was utilized for hydrated samples at 2 hours, 1, 3 and 7 days as well as after 1 and 3 months.Dissolution kinetics of cement phases were employed for thermody namic modeling using a geochemical software based on Gibbs free energy mini mization.The predicted hydrate assemblage, depending on the hydration time, was compared to that obtained with the experimental results.Ca, Al, Si, S, K and Na concentrations in pore solutions were used for calculating saturation indices of cement hydrates.The results indicate a good correlation between the hydrates formed and pore solution composition and show the different hydration mechanisms depending on the OPC and CSA ce ment proportion.Thermodynamic modeling gives a better understanding of phase equilibria in the blends.Modeling is also used to predict the composition of unstudied blends and to discuss the impact of the sulfate amount.
