It is possible to trace the relationship of influence of various additives on the kinetics of cement hydration by exothermic effect produced by hydration and wetting of cement. Identifying additives which produce inhibiting or accelerating effect on the process of setting and hardening allows to predict their impact on the growth of strength. The activity of influence of additives can be assessed by the use of thermo-kinetic analysis method. In this article the calorimetric study of the influence of cement-carbon material was conducted.
