AbstractHydrothermal reactions of fumed silica with lime at 80°C were studied at starting Ca/Si of 0.8–2.0 and water/solid ratio of 20 by weight under periods of reaction time from 10 to 100 days.In the early ages of reaction, CSH having weak and diffuse basal reflections between 10–15Å was formed. On prolonging the reaction, CSH from the starting Ca/Si of 1.2–1.5 crystallised to jennite, and that from the starting Ca/Si of 0.9 to 14Å tobermorite.Lattice parameters were determined on the well crystalline jennite obtained by the reaction for 100 days at the starting Ca/Si of 1.4; i.e. ao 10.59, bo 7.21, co 10.82Å, α 99.60°, β 97.78°, γ 109.85°. Its crystals were lath-like elongated parallel to b with (001) cleavage.It was confirmed that the synthetic jennite was converted to meta-jennite by losing a part of its water on heating in air at 90°C. At higher temperatures it became poorly crystalline, and then crystallised to β-CaSiO3 and β-Ca2SiO4 at 800°C.
