Essential focus of the study has been to acquire thermoanalytical events, incl. enthalpies of decompositions - ∆H, of natural
minerals of calcium-silicate-sulfate-aluminate hydrates. The thermoanalytical curves of thaumasite and ettringite are
fully in line with that reported in reference sources. The values of ∆H calculated from DSC curves in the intervals of key
decomposition steps ranging from 50 to 250 oC, achieve (1215 +/- 60) J g-1 for thaumasite and (930 +/- 40) J g-1 for ettringite.
The differing values of decomposition enthalpies ∆H, as presented by various research groups, are indicated and critically
discussed in the paper. |
