Excerpt from Calcareous Cements: Their Nature, Manufacture and Uses With Some Observations Upon Cement Testing
It may be assumed that limes of every different degree of energy, from pure oxide of calcium down to true calcareous cements, exist in nature; thus there is an enormous range of varieties of action to be studied, and any attempt to classify all limes under two or three sub-heads must be futile and um trustworthy.
In order to rightly understand the action of limes and cements, a certain amount of chemical knowledge is involved, and this branch of the subject may now be briefly discussed and treated of as tersely as possible.
