CSA-Cements …
… have attracted new interest during the climate debate as they:need lower burning temperatures,release less CO2 from the raw meal (less limestone),yield a higher volume of hydrate phases (higher water/ cement ratio)
compared to ordinary Portland cement.Besides that, they are of interest concerning waste
encapsulation.But they have some drawbacks:
environment (SO2 release)risk of expansion (ettringite is main hydration product)
4
CSA-cements: risk of expansion

United States Patent 4409030, 1983: Material for destroying concrete structures
… comprises a mixture of … coarse-grained quicklime … and … cement. The cement may contain calcium sulfoaluminate ... The material is blended with water and then injected into holes formed in the body to be destroyed, the material expanding as it hydrates to crack and fracture the body.
Basic research is needed to understand the hydration mechanisms of calcium sulfoaluminate based systems !

Modelling: solid and liquid phase of CSA-2
Up to now, the hydration has been modelled only with insufficient accuracy (poor correlation with experimental data, especially with pore solution composition),
mainly due to:
some uncertain thermodynamic data (e. g. CAH10)kinetic restraints (slow dissolution of anhydrite)
=> work in progress
21
Conclusion – hydration of CSA cements (I)
Solid phases:ettringite formation until CaSO4 is (almost) used, then monosulfate occursAl(OH)3 gel forming by-product of hydrationwith C2S als minor phase (CSA-2) strätlingite forms after 28 ddissolution of calcium sulfates hindered
Pore solution:first hours: dominated by alkalis, calcium and sulfatepH 10.5 - 10.8when CaSO4 (almost) used: mainly alkalis, OH and AluminumpH 12.5 - 12.8 after 28 d
22
Conclusion – hydration of CSA cements (II)
Microstructure:CSA-1: quite dense already after 18 hours,very dense after 28 days despite high w/c of 0.72CSA-2: dense, but inhomogeneouslarge strätlingite crystals after 28 days
Application:binder for various applications (e. g. „plaster“boards)acceleration of OPC or slag hydration in ternary blends also incorporatng gypsum or anhydriteshrinkage reducing / expansive agentwaste encapsulation
