It should be mentioned that, although pozzolanic materials shown in Figure 3, such as I FA, 2 MS and 3 SF, do not have latent cementitious properties like the GGBS, given their fineness and spherical shape; when they come into contact with water they react chemically with calcium hydroxide, derived from the heat liberated during the Portland cement hydration, thereby forming compounds of h yd rated calcium silicate Steven et al., 2004.
Es importante mencionar que a pesar de que los materiales puzolánicos, mostrados en la Figura 3 tales como la 1CV, 2MS y 3HS, no poseen propiedades cementantes latentes como la EGAH, dada su finura y forma esférica, al entrar en contacto con agua reaccionan químicamente con el hidróxido de calcio, evidenciado del calor liberado durante la hidratación del cemento Portland, formando compuestos de silicato calcico hidratado Steven et al., 2004.
