Reaction products of high lime fly ash (FA), mixed with distilled water and hydrated in contact with Portland cement (PC), and in hardened PC/FA pastes of various mix proportions, were examined by SEM and EDX. Structures contributing to early strength originated mainly through solution depositions of ettringite, and portlandite. Some evidence of ettringite instability suggested gypsum deficiency in PC/FA mixtures.
