Hydraulic cements

摘要

A method of making a special high strength cement of the Portland type containing alite of improved hydraulic activity, wherein argillaceous and calcareous materials are combined to form clinker by heating in a kiln and the resulting clinker is ground to form a cement, comprising the step of introducing into the kiln a combination of mineralizers which contains fluorine and sulphur, provided that an alkali metal compound which can be a component of the aforesaid combination of mineralizers is included in the combination of mineralizers at least when the condition that the lime saturation factor be at least 0.98 and the silica ratio be at least 4 is not met.
