The standard cement paste (C-43-St) was studied previously by static heating, SH, immediately after 1 month hydration at w/c = 0.4 [J. Therm. Anal. Calorim. 69 (2002) 187]. This paste after 5-year ageing (unprotected from contact with air) was subject to thermal analysis in air and in argon (DTA, DTG and TG), to XRD at various temperatures, T, in a high temperature chamber, to mass spectroscopy (MS) and to IR spectroscopy. The aim of this study was to compare the results of SH (fresh paste) and of TG (the aged one), to verify the assumptions made on SH interpretation and to check the change in hydration products with ageing as measured by phase transformation on heating (deltaM versus the final mass).
