| Popis: | Abstract The modernization of building systems is increasingly demanding products that improve efficiency during their processing. The development of self-leveling mortars for the regularization of flooring is a consequence of this evolution. The high contents of binder and water to obtain self-flowing property, plus the application of thin layers over large areas, make this type of mortar susceptible to high shrinkage levels. Thus, the ternary system Portland cement-calcium aluminate cement-calcium sulfate (OPC-CAC-CaSO4) is a viable solution for shrinkage compensation. The expansion mechanism based on ettringite formation aims to prevent the mortar from cracking. Considering its complexity and that international literature is still limited (while Brazilian is null), this article presents a literature review that covers diverse aspects related to the application of the system OPC-CAC-CaSO4. The influence of raw materials and mix proportions on rheological behavior, reaction kinetics, development of strength, and length change are discussed. |
