Hydration Characteristics of Tricalcium Aluminate in the Presence of Nano-Silica

Tricalcium aluminate (C<sub>3</sub>A) is the most reactive component of the Portland cement and its hydration has an important impact on the workability and early strength of concrete. Recently, nanomaterials such as nano-silica (nano-SiO<sub>2</sub>) have attracted much atte...
