Cement is a paste of calcium silicate hydrates, polymerized into a densely cross-linked matrix. Although cement has been known and used for two thousand years, even today its chemistry is not fully understood. This paper addresses several aspects of the chemistry of cement and modern characterization of the processes of cement …

In this chapter, the term cement is used in its classical meaning: a crystalline compound of calcium silicates and other calcium compounds having hydraulic properties. Cement is therefore a hydraulic binder, that is, a material that chemically reacts with water by converting the water-binder system into a solid matrix with the capacity to …

Cement Chemistry. Cement is chiefly of two kinds based on the way it is set and hardened: hydraulic cement, which hardens due to the addition of water, and non-hydraulic cement, which is hardened by carbonation with the carbon present in the air, so it cannot be used underwater.
ادامه مطلب
Generally, cement is classified into two categories on the basis of hardening and setting mechanisms. Hydraulic ; Non-hydraulic; Hydraulic cement: The word "hydraulic cement" refers to materials that harden by hydration in the presence of water. To make non-hydraulic cement, the key raw materials are limestone, clay, and gypsum.
