Abstract

The application of Carboxylmethyl Cellulose Sulfate (CMC-S) in cement paste was studied. The effect of CMC-S on the setting time of cement paste was investigated. Hydration heat of specimens with different cured age was measured via the Hydration Heat Tester (HHT), and hydration process was recorded via Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). The results indicated that CMC-S was a kind of set-retarding and water-reducing agent; its retarding properties appeared at early age, but after three days, the hydration process of cement paste was even improved.
