Determining the water–cement ratio, cement content, water content and degree of hydration of hardened cement paste: Method development and validation on paste samples (2009, background): “This is a crucial 148 finding because it suggests that all Portland cements hydrate at room temperature to form approximately the 149 same hydration products, at approximately the same rate and mutual proportions [15, 16].”
Development of cement-based lightweight composites : part 1: mix design methodology and hardened properties (2013, methodology): “The porosity resulting from the hydration of cement consists of two parts: the first part is the capillary porosity and the second part is the chemical shrinkage porosity due to cement hydration, which can be described using a model proposed by Brouwers [38], reading uv;paste ¼ uw þus ¼ w0 c0 n wdmd”
Influence of superabsorbent polymers on hydration of cement pastes with low water-to-binder ratio (2013, methodology): “According to Brouwers [7], employing average values”
Thermal properties of hydrating calcium aluminate cement pastes (2010, unknown): “Unfortunately, in literature there is no such cement paste model for CAC hydration analog to Powers' model for PC hydration [17,39].”
Composition and density of nanoscale calcium-silicate-hydrate in cement. (2007, background): “85, even for C–S–H gel that is free of nanoscale Ca(OH) 2 , most studie”
