Abstract

The hydration of high-calcium and low-calcium fly ash-cementmixtures was investigated to determine the effect of fly ash upon the hydration of a Type I portland cement, and to determine the associated mechanisms of hydration. When blended with portland cement, both fly ashes retarded the early hydration process, the high-Ca more so than the low-Ca. Analyses of solution compositions and calorimetric (heat of hydration) measurements were made. The retardation and hydration effects are discussed in terms of solution composition data and solid phase characterization. The hydration effects were interpreted and compared with the results of previous work.
