Abstract
method for the estimation of free calcium hydroxide in set cement by
!J· T· G. A. has been developed, using a manually operated thermogravimetric
v~lance. It has bee~1 observed that loss due to dehydration of Ca(OH)2 which
gwe~ a measu1e of tis amount can be determined from the area of the peak
round 550°C after correcting for the loss at this temperal1ne range due to
other constituents of set cement by extrapolation.
