“…The first peak occurs within the first minutes into the hydration process when water is added, which is related to the wetting and very early hydration reactions. After 10 h for CBA‐10 and after 5 h for CBA‐20, a small peak occurs followed by the main hydration peak at 11 h for CBA‐10 and at 8 h for CBA‐20, which is probably related to the formation of AFm and C 2 AH 8 phases, based on the literature 62 …”

“…It is considered to be an easily hydrated phase with slightly less reactivity than tricalcium aluminate (C 3 A). It is important in cements with high initial strength but in carefully controlled quantities [ 53 , 54 ]. Carvalho et al [ 55 ] noted that mayenite is acceptable in belitic cements, since it could result in the same increase in the initial mechanical strength.…”

“…In a hardened cementitious matrix, the formation of a new phase may lead to deleterious volumetric changes, depending on the relative densities of the precursor phase and the produced phase. For instance, the well‐known conversion process in high calcium aluminate cement leads to a loss in strength due to the significantly lower density of the precursor calcium aluminate phases (CAH 10 and C 2 AH 8 ; densities ≈ 1.95 g/cm 3 ) compared to the denser katoite product (density ≈ 2.8 g/cm 3 ) of the process 86 . Similary, the delayed ettringite formation leads to deleterious expansion in the hardened cementitious matrix, due to the difference in the density of ettringite (~1.8 g/cm 3 ) and the precursor phases (monosulfate ≈ 2.02 g/cm 3 , gypsum ≈ 2.3 g/cm 3 , C‐S‐H ≈ 2.2‐2.6 g/cm 3 ) from which it forms 87 .…”
