Abstract A promising approach to accelerate cement hydration known as "seeding technology" has been discovered using nano-particles to provide additional nucleation sites for growing of C-S-H. Two different types of polymer, polycarboxylate (PCE) and polysulfonate (PSE) were used as stabilizer to synthesize nano-C-S-H via co-precipitation process.

This reaction is known as hydration. If the mixing water dries out too rapidly before the cement has fully hydrated, the curing process will stop, and the concrete will not harden to its intended strength. Hydration occurs more rapidly at higher air temperatures. Hydration itself also generates heat.

Cement is a finely ground powder of burned limestone. It reacts readily with water (hydrates) to form a solid material, known as hardened cement paste. When cement is mixed together with rock aggregate, sand and filler materials, it forms concrete. Cement is one of the most important base materials in general use in the construction industry.

Through a chemical reaction called hydration, the cement paste hardens and gains strength. The quality of the paste determines the character of the concrete. The strength of the paste, in turn, depends on the ratio of water to cement. The water-cement ratio is the weight of the mixing water divided by the weight of the cement.
