Calcium aluminate cements are used for many special applications in
the construction, civil engineering and refractory industries
because of their ability to gain strength rapidly and to withstand
aggressive environments and high temperatures. Research into their
properties and behaviour in many countries is presented in this
book, which includes papers from an International Symposium held in
London, A special feature is a major review paper by Lafarge
Special Cements presenting the current state of knowledge on the
materials. Other papers deal with clinker, hydration, admixtures,
calorimetry, durability, blended systems and other aspects. The
book is dedicated to the late Henry Midgley whose research into
calcium aluminate cements at the Building Research Establishment
made an important contribution to the understanding of their
behaviour.
The special properties of calcium aluminate cements make them of
value in the construction, mining and refractory industries. This
book brings together new international research information on
their performance. As well as a state-of-the-art review, it
includes reports on studies of: mineralogy, hydration and
microstructure; rheology of pastes, mortars and grouts; admixtures
and blended; systems durability of high alumina cement concrete.
