Abstract

Morphological changes which occur during the hydration of C 3A ∗ paste were observed by electron microscopy from the age of 5 minutes to 3 months. X-ray analyses were used to identify phases. The effects of the admixtures, triethanolamine and calcium lignosulphonate, were investigated with and without gypsum. The dosage of admixture was 0.5%; the water to C 3A ratio was 1.0. The results showed clearly the morphological changes that took place as hydration proceeded, and showed the specific influences of each of the two admixtures.
