The cement clinker grinding circuit reduces the feed from 80% passing size between 10 and 20 mm to 100% passing 90 um. However, the specific surface area of the cement powder depends also on size distribution of cement particles (smaller particles have …
· The three alkanolamines have different effects on clinker hydration and the precipitation of hydrates, as seen in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8. Higher amounts of hydrates formed lead to a higher degree of porosity refinement. On the other hand, the molar mass of TEA (149.2 g/mol) is lower compared to TIPA (191.3 g/mol) and DEIPA (163.2 g/mol).

Taylor [3] notes that the enthalpies of formation of clinker phase hydration products would refine estimates of potential heat evolution, but the uncertainties in their values and variability in the reaction stoichiometry of hydration would also introduce
· work is still in progress, we can make a reliable hypothesis about the pre-hydration of clinker during grinding process, which is deeply influenced by the presence of the active components (alkanolamines and glycols) of cement additive, or better of Grinding Aids (GA).
Real time studies of hydration of a Portland cement and of calcium silicate extracted clinker were made. X-Ray diffraction measurements were made using either an INEL powder diffractometer (Zr-filtered Mo-Kα radiation, CPS120 position sensitive detector) or a MAR diffractometer (synchrotron X-radiation, wavelength 0.90371 Å).The dry samples were mounted in glass …

· It is known that gypsum retards the hydration of the aluminate (C 3 A) phase in the clinker [46,47], attributed to the adsorption of sulfate ions on the C 3 A surface . When gypsum has been consumed, the aluminate phases hydrate and react with sulfate ions desorbed from C-(A-)S–H phases to form ettringite [ 20 ].

· Fineness of Cement. One of the last steps in the manufacture of cement is the grinding of clinker mixed with gypsum. Because hydration starts at the surface of the cement particles, it is the total surface area of cement that represents the material available for hydration. Thus, the rate of hydration depends on the fineness of the.
