Abstract

The microstructures of belite examined by high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) show the (1 0 0) and (0 0 1) twin lamellae which are introduced by shear stresses during the transformation ofα′−C2S toβ-C2S.γ-C2S formed in the larnite was identified and the orientation relationship between them was also determined by a composite electron diffraction pattern (EDP), which is different from that suggested earlier by Groves. The EDP and the HREM image showed the existence of the unstable phaseα′ L−C2S.
