Hydration mechanism of anhydrite and calcium …
Utilization of Portland cement to initiate the dissolution of blast furnace slag (BFS) in super-sulfated cement is limited by low slag substitution level and poor early strength. In this study, a new activator composed of anhydrite and calcium sulfoaluminate cement clinker was proposed to enhance the utilization of BFS in super-sulfated cement.
