Aluminum sulfate (AS) is the most effective composition in alkali-free liquid accelerators. Various publications have confirmed that the addition of AS results in the formation of ettringite (AFt) by the liquid-phase precipitation in concrete [1, [7], [8], [9]].These hydration products then cross each other to form a reticular structure, which leads to the rapid setting of …

Cement Hydration Kinetics

The main products of cement hydration reactions are calcium silicate hydrate (CSH), calcium hydroxide (CH), and the AFt and AFm phases. The AFt and AFm phases found in hydrated cement are compounds of C 3 A, anhydrite and water. The most common AFt phase is ettringite and the most prevalent AFm phase is monosulfate.

What Makes Concrete Harden: The Chemical Reactions …

Role Of Hydration In Concrete Hardening. Concrete hardens through the process of hydration, which occurs when water is mixed with cement. Hydration is a chemical reaction that transforms the cement particles into a solid, binding material. This reaction plays a vital role in determining the properties and strength of the resulting concrete.
