Early Hardening Process of CA Mortar Indicated by Electrical Resistivity [PDF]
A non-contact electrical resistivity measurement device was employed to indicate the early hardening process of cement asphalt emulsified mortar (CA mortar). It was found that this process was analogous with the hydration process of cement and could be categorized into three parts: dissolving period, induction period and setting period.

Effect of calcium aluminate cement variety on the hydration of Portland cement in blended system [PDF]
Two kinds of CACs with different monocalcium aluminate (CA) contents were used in the PC/CAC (PAC) mixtures. Effects of CA and CACs on the properties of PAC were analyzed by setting times and the compressive strength tests, and also by means of ...

Crack mitigation in concrete : superabsorbent polymers as key to success? [PDF]
Cracking is a major concern in building applications. Cracks may arise from shrinkage, freeze/thawing and/or structural stresses, amongst others. Several solutions can be found but superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) seem to be interesting to counteract these
