So, hydration of cement is chemical reaction of cement with water molecules in an exothermic process. The heat of hydration of cement is the amount of energy required to hydrate a mass unit of cement (1 kg) in water at 37°C. This quantity is defined as the product of the enthalpy change and time, or ΔH value.Web

Cement is a hydraulic binder; it consists of a finely ground inorganic material which forms a paste when mixed with water, is able to set and harden because of numerous exothermic hydration reactions (and processes), and is thus capable of binding fragments of solid matter to form a compact whole solid [1,2,3].After hardening, cement retains its …Web
