To clarify the strength improvement mechanism of gap-graded blended cements with a high amount of supplementary cementitious materials, phase composition of hardened gap-graded blended cement pastes was quantified, and compared with those of Portland cement paste and reference blended cement (prepared by co-grinding) paste. The results show that the gap-graded blended cement pastes containing only 25% cement clinker by mass have comparable amount of gel products and porosity with Portland cement paste at all tested ages. For gap-graded blended cement pastes, about 40% of the total gel products can be attributed to the hydration of fine blast furnace slag, and the main un-hydrated component is coarse fly ash, corresponding to un-hydrated cement clinker in Portland cement paste. Further, pore size refinement is much more pronounced in gap-graded blended cement pastes, attributing to high initial packing density of cement paste (grain size refinement) and significant hydration of BFS.
