  • Title: The Effect of Elevated Curing Temperatures on High Ye'elimite Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement Mortars.
    Author: Jeong Y, Hargis CW, Kang H, Chun SC, Moon J.
    Journal: Materials (Basel); 2019 Apr 01; 12(7):. PubMed ID: 30939826.
    Abstract:
    This study investigated the material properties and hydration characteristics of calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA) based mortars cured under 3 different initial curing temperatures. Two CSA cements with different M-values were selected. Obtained experimental results of mechanical properties, dimensional stability, and heat release were explained by hydration characteristics from X-ray diffraction, thermal gravimetric analysis, porosimetry, and thermodynamic modeling. Decomposition of ettringite decreased compressive strength but re-formation of ettringite after additional curing at 30 °C helped to recover the strength in CSA cement with a high amount of calcium sulfate. CSA cement with a low amount of calcium sulfate which was designed to predominantly have monosulfate as the main hydration product, showed increased 1-day strength after higher temperature curing but this occurred was at the expense of decreased 28-day strength.
