Scope1.1 This guide describes the determination of approximateoptimum SO3for maximum compressive strength at 24 h,3 days, or 7 d

3、ays by measuring the change in strength producedin hydraulic cement mortar as a result of substituting calciumsulfate for a portion of the cement.1.2 This guide refers to the sulfur trioxide (SO3) content ofthe cement only. Slag cements and occasionally other hydrauliccements can contain sulfide or

4、other forms of sulfur. Thedetermination of SO3content by rapid methods may includethese other forms, and may therefore produce a significanterror. If a significant error occurs, analyze the cement for SO3content using the reference test method of Test Methods C114for sulfur trioxide.1.3 Values state

Retest8.1 If the approximate optimum sulfate level is greater or

25、lower than all the SO3contents tested, then test at additionalsulfate levels until at least one SO3content is greater than orless than approximate optimum SO3content.

DISCUSSION OF THE TERM “OPTIMUM”X1.1 The scope statement notes that this test method deter-

28、mines the optimum SO3content in cements in mortar at aparticular temperature and age. Usually, but not always, theSO3content that produces the highest 24-h strength at 23Calso produces approximately the lowest expansion in water andthe lowest contraction in air at that temperature.C563 162X1.2 The “

29、optimum” determined by this test is approxi-mate. The “optimum” SO3content will vary with changes inmortar proportions; between cement paste, mortars and con-crete; will vary with the source of SO3; with the age of test;with the use of chemical admixtures; and with the use ofsupplementary cementitio

30、us materials. Thus, the term “opti-mum SO3” refers to an approximate value.X1.3 The age for determining the optimum is typicallychosen by the manufacturer based on experience with localconcrete materials.X1.4 For convenience, the method uses the compressivestrength of specimens at three different SO

31、3contents for thecement. If the strength results are plotted against SO3content,the three points are assumed to give a curve in the shape of aparabola, and the calculation used assumes this shape. If morepoints are used with smaller SO3content increments, the shapeof the curve is seen to be that of

32、a “sawtooth,” with adecreasing slope up to the apex at maximum strength, followedby a precipitous fall in strength immediately after the apex. Theapex represents the actual optimum SO3content, and istypically higher than that calculated using three points.Therefore, this affords a small “cushion” wh
