Abstract:The effects of amorphous C12A7 which partly replaced ordinary Portland cement are studied in this paper on the early properties including setting time,fluidity,mechanical property,water-retaining property and water-absorption property of drymixed mortar,hydration products were tested by Scanning electron microscope (SEM).The results showed that when the amount of ordinary Portland cement was 6% replaced by amorphous C12A7,the setting time of the mortar is 84 min,the 28 d compressive strength is 47.1 MPa,the water-absorption ratio is 3.16% and the water-retention is 96%.It indicated that amorphous C12A7 can decrease the setting time of mortar,increase the mechanical properties of mortar,decrease the water-absorption of mortar and also improve the water-retention property of dry-mixed mortar.
