Abstract
X-ray diffraction has been used for at least a century in the cement industry to identify the crystalline phases of Portland cement [1]. More recently, the quantification of phases by X-ray diffraction (QRXD) together with other microstructural techniques have been successfully applied to Portland cement [2].
