The role of ion diffusion in the heat flow and chemical shrinkage of tricalcium aluminate (C3A) hydration was investigated using the proposed multi-ionic reactive transport model for C3A hydration. Ion diffusion, dissolution, and precipitation reactions were coupled in the governing equation of the...
