| Summary: | The article deals with the results of comparative tests of the phase composition of cement stone distinguished by strength under bending and compression. The comparison has been made between samples subjected to early loading and control samples. An increase in tensile strength in bending of samples subjected to early loading was recorded. The difference in compressive strengths does not exceed 5%. X-ray phase analysis indicates amorphous phase increase with the growth of strength properties, which is manifested in increased intensity of the amorphous phase arc in the X-ray diffraction pattern. The highest peak of the curve corresponds to the maximum flexural strength of the entire row of samples. Among the samples subjected to early loading, the peak intensity of the group of crystal tobermorites with interplanar distances 11.5-11.3Å and 12.5Å appeared to be higher than the intensity of the control samples. It was proposed that the amorphous structure affects the increase in tensile strength in bending of cement stone subjected to early loading. |
