Abstract
Small Angle Neutron Scattering determinations of the fractal dimension s of CSH aggregates have been performed. These fractal dimensions vary with the elaboration process (C3S hydration, pouzzolanic reaction or direct precipitation). However, for preparation by C3S hydration, the fractal dimension remains constant whatever the Ca/Si ratio, except wh en silica gel is stable (Ca/Si = 1).
