BookPal × TalezoCement Chemistry
The third edition of Cement Chemistry addresses the chemistry and materials science of the principal silicate and aluminate cements used in building and civil engineering, with emphasis throughout on the underlying science. Providing a solid grounding in core topic areas, the book will enable the reader to manage the problems and pitfalls that can arise in engineering practice as a result of inadequate understanding of the relevant chemistry.
This first volume updates second edition chapters on the chemistry and properties of anhydrous Portland cement and its constituent phases, and the hydration of calcium silicates.
Highlights include
- updated and enhanced treatment of crystal structure data, including the incorporation of space group numbers and extensive use of crystal-chemical information
- updated Bogue equations and illustrative calculation of enthalpy change on formation of Portland cement clinker
- expanded coverage of hydration of calcium silicates, including critical discussion of a wide range of data from the literature
- two new chapters about calcium (alumino) silicate hydrates: natural minerals and synthetic preparations.
This new edition has been extensively revised and updated to reflect the latest advances in the field, and it serves both as an introduction to those entering the subject for the first time and as a guide to the latest developments for those already experienced in the field.
