Accelerating: Calcium Formate and Calcium Chloride
Calcium formate and Calcium Chloride can accelerate cement hardening speed, shorten the setting
time;
Accelerating admixtures are added to concrete either to increase the rate of early strength
development or to shorten the time of setting, or both. Chemical compositions of accelerators
include some of inorganic compounds such as soluble chlorides, carbonates, silicates, fluosilicates,
and some organic compounds such as triethanolamine.
Among all these accelerating materials, calcium chloride is the most common accelerator used in
concrete. Most of the available literature treats calcium chloride as the main accelerator and
briefly discusses the other types of accelerators. However, growing interest in using
"chloride-free" accelerators as replacement for calcium chloride has been observed. This is
because calcium chloride in reinforced concrete can promote co
