The project aims to investigate the influence of K + ions and complex (K + + Al3 +) additive on the crystallization of dibasic calcium silicate hydrates in CaO-SiO2-H2O system with a molar CaO / SiO2 ratio of 1.9. The synthesis will be carried out under hydrothermal conditions at a temperature of 200 ° C in a saturated water vapor environment for 4, 8, 16, 24, 48 and 72 h. The obtained products will be investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis, simultaneous thermal analysis and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy methods, and rational applications of synthetic products will be proposed.
