Abstract
A new technique for measuring the quantity of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S -H) in hydrated, blended cement pastes containing class F fly ash, ground g ranulated blast furnace slag, or silica fume is based on water adsorption. The rate of C-S-H formation was determined to be logarithmic in all pastes. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
