AbstractThe microstructures of high strength pastes of OPC and high alumina cements prepared by the high shear mixing of a low water/cement ratio paste with water soluble polymers have been studied by transmission electron microscopy. In the case of high strength OPC, the usual hydration products are present, however, the CSH gel lacks the fibrillar morphology often observed in conventional cements. Pastes based on high alumina cement do not contain the normal crystalline calcium aluminate hydrates but a small quantity of gel containing the organic polymer forms a continuous network structure bonding clinker grains. Microanalysis of the polymer phase in high alumina cement revealed the presence of Ca and Al while Ca-rich interstitial gel material was found in OPC pastes.

This paper discusses studies regarding the impact of fine-ground glass additives on the hydration and properties of alumina cement pastes and mortars. Fine-ground glass was added to pastes and mortars instead of high-alumina cement and calcium aluminate cement in quantities of 5% and 10%. The findings are inconclusive as to the impact of glass on the properties of tested alumina cement types. The effect produced via the addition of glass instead of cement depends on the type of alumina cement used. Adding fine-ground glass to high-alumina cement enhances the paste’s density while improving paste and mortar strength. Using the same additive for calcium aluminate cement reduces its density and strength. The addition of glass to high-alumina cement adversely affects its strength at higher temperatures.
