Characterizing the Extent of Cement Prehydration As already described, the term "prehydration" is used to capture a range of premature reaction phenomena that result from exposure not only to water (liquid or vapor) but also to other reactants that OPC is likely to encounter during storage. The primary substance, besides water, that can ...
The term "hydration" is used in cement chemistry to generically indicate any and all net reactions of cementitious mineral phases with water, and we will use the term in this …

Prehydration - the reaction between anhydrous cement and water vapour - has deleterious effects on engineering properties such as compressive strength, workability and setting time.
It has been demonstrated that the exposure to water vapour pressure of a certain intensity will lead to prehydration of cement clinker. Moisture is present in the process of cement production, transportation, and storage. Although improved packaging may help, the prehydration of cement cannot be fully prevented.
Fresh Portland cement was exposed to the specific conditions of (20±2) °C and 85%–90% relative humidity. Effect of prehydration on the water requirement of normal consistency of cement, the cement hydration behavior and the development of mortar strength at different exposure time was investigated. The interaction between prehydrated cement and …
1. Introduction. Population growth and urbanization rely heavily on the concrete industry, which creates an ever-growing demand for ordinary cement [1].With more than 3 billion tonnes of production each year, the associated CO 2 emissions from cement production account for 5–7% of total global CO 2 emissions [2].To address this …

Low dust clinker with a smaller average particle size is also easier to cool, which reduces the potential strength loss that can occur with higher levels of periclase, high temperature cement milling and prehydration. Smaller clinker nodules are also usually easier to grind, so they also help improve cement mill output and reduce kWh/t. 3.

Isothermal conduction calorimetry (Figure 5) provides further information on how normal cement hydration is affected by prehydration. Prehydration at 60% RH showed little difference in the total heat evolved (Figure 5(a)), but there was a reduction in the maximum heat rate plus slight retardation with prolonged exposure.
