Abstract:In order to elucidate the hydration behavior of super sulphated cement(SSC) with different types of gypsum, influence of anhydrite, dihydrate gypsum, and phosphogypsum on the cement paste compressive strength of various age of SSC were tested;furthermore, hydration exothermic rate, hydration heat and hydration products were systematically compared. Results show that 3 day strength of all samples is about 14MPa;however, phosphogypsum based SSC of the compressive strength 412MPa at 28 days and 491MPa at 90 days is significantly higher than other samples. Early strength mainly depends on hydration heat rate of different samples, later strength is due to the better activation effect of phosphogypsum than anhydrite and dihydrate gypsum, SSC paste with phosphogypsum could generate more C S H and ettringite in late stage with relatively higher density than other samples.
