Abstract

The work aims to study the effect of polycarboxylate type of super plasticizer on the hydration of composite cements. In this paper we have studied the hydration of 20 wt% fly ash (FA) blended Portland cement in the presence of 0.1 wt% super plasticizer (SP). Water consistency, setting times, non-evaporable water contents, compressive strength, water percolation, and air content measurements were carried out. In addition, X-ray diffraction studies were carried out to understand the hydration process. The results indicated the increase in compressive strength of the FA blended Portland cement in the presence of SP and with the increase of the hydration time.
