Limestone additions to portland cement: pros and cons
reflect the effects of weathered cement clinker, with high values indicating prehydration of the cement clinker. However, lime-stone additions also increase loss on ignition, and this increase may mask the effect of prehydration. Cement manufacturers agree that limestone additions will increase loss on ignition. But because the loss-on-ignition

Initial hydration process of calcium silicates in Portland cement…
As the main components in ordinary Portland cement (comprising more than 75% of the cement), the hydration of calcium silicates is responsible for the strength development of cement mortar [2].The β polymorph of dicalcium silicate (β-C 2 S) and the M 3 polymorph of tricalcium silicate (M 3-C 3 S) are the most observed phases. However, the hydration reactivity …

Cement grinding Vertical roller mills VS ball mills
Prehydration of cement can, when exceeding a certain level, lead to reduced reactivity of the cement and thus longer setting times and reduced strengths, particularly early strengths. Prehydration can also enhance the tendency of false set in cement with a high content of dehydrated gypsum.

SiloSafe Cement service
SiloSafe Cement service What is silo-safe cement? Water is always present during cement production, but it's vital to avoid the premature reaction of cement with water – known as prehydration. Cement prehydration can happen when the com-bination of water and temperature in the mill is not optimised. In the silo, prehydration usually occurs

It was found that prehydration converted hemihydrate to gypsum and partially transformed the principal cement phases and inherent portlandite into carbonates, thus reducing C3S and C2S while increasing CaCO3 and gypsum. Hydration was slowed down with a delay in the appearance of the aluminate peak and reduction in cumulative heat at 72 h.

Reducing pre-hydration in a VRM
However, cement produced in VRMs sometimes has lower strength and longer setting time compared to ball-mill cements made with the same raw materials. In most cases, pre-hydration of the cement, due to the presence of moisture inside the VRM, is a significant factor. ... There are two approaches to reducing prehydration in a VRM:

The overall slower reaction of cement B may be attributed to its higher presence of gypsum, as previously shown in the XRD results (Fig. 3), which results in a delay in the reaction of aluminates [33] and, consequently, a decrease in the overall reaction kinetics compared to cement A. The prehydration of cement in the compositions resulted in ...
