Sažetak
After water, cement is the second most widely used substance in the world and the largest manufactured product by mass. Calcium aluminate cement (CAC) is a special cement used for high-performance applications (resistance to chemical attack, high early strength, refractory use, abrasion resistance, and/or use at low ambient temperatures). Monocalcium aluminate, CA, the main constituent of CAC, reacts with water to form a series of calcium aluminate hydrates. Therefore, the main objective of the present paper is to determine the occurring hydrated phases of CAC paste. Moreover, complementary analytical methods such as X-ray diffraction analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and isothermal calorimetry will be presented to characterise hydration of CAC.
