Sulfate optimization in ettringite rich cements by SO3/Al2O3 molar ratio: A comparative study of calcium sulfoaluminate and aluminate cements

The hydration process of calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) and aluminate cement (CAC) is influenced by their composition and calcium sulfate sources. Increasing the calcium sulfate content promotes ettringite generation; however, exceeding the optimal threshold may cause volume instability. This study ai...
