Hydration characteristics and hydration products of calcium sulfoaluminate cement and fly ash blended pastes
This study investigated a binary blend of calcium sulfoaluminate cement and fly ash with a target compressive strength of more than 32.5 MPa based on the EN 197-1 standard, using as much fly ash as possible. In the binder system of calcium sulfoaluminate cement and fly ash, a decrease in the replacement level of fly ash results in an increase in compressive strength. Mortar with a 40% replacement level of fly ash for calcium sulfoaluminate cement and added gypsum shows 49.41 MPa strength at 28 d. Its hydrates are hydroxy-AFm, ettringite, crystalline aluminum hydroxide, amorphous aluminum hydroxide, strätlingite, and monosulfate. They are attributed to the hydration of ye’elimite, C2S, and C3A in calcium sulfoaluminate cement. The reactivity of fly ash is not observed until 28 d of hydration. The formation of ettringite is the main cause of the gains in compressive strength.
