HYDRAULIC PROPERTIES OF THE CALCIUM SILICATE SULFATE CHLORIDE CA4(SIO4)(SO4)CL2

Differential calorimetric analysis (dca) measurements and 28 d compressive strength determinations revealed that calcium silicate sulfate chloride, in contrast to chloroellestadite, is hydraulically active. The second dca maximum resembles that of alite, but the heat evolution rate in this maximum is clearly lower. The compressive strength (approx 25 mpa) is lower than known for c3s but definitely higher than found for c2s or anhydrite. In view of these results the possibilities for producing a hydraulic binder with calcium silicate sulfate chloride as a main component were checked. The main advantage of this binder is the possibility of using wastes such as gypsum, calcium chloride brine or belite slurry, as raw materials. The use of the new binder for reinforced concrete seems to be impossible in view of the corrosive properties expected.
