The crucial effect of early-stage gelation on the mechanical properties of cement hydrates

The crucial effect of early-stage gelation on the mechanical properties of cement hydrates

Gelation and densification of calcium-silicate-hydrate take place during cement hydration. Both processes are crucial for the development of cement strength, and for the long-term evolution of concrete structures. However, the physicochemical environment evolves during cement formation, making it di...
