This article is a stage of the author’s research into the impact of different factors on the hydration of mineral binders. The problem of cement activity decrease due to adsorption moisture influence during long-term storage in normal conditions (20°C and 50% RH) was examined. The influence of storage period in airtight and non-airtight conditions on the kinetics of heat evolution during hydration as well as on phase composition of Portland cement was characterized using experimental methods.

The paper presents the influence of polyethylene glycol additives wit h molecular weights of 2000... 6000 on basic physical and mechanical properties of plaster hardening at low positive and negative temperature s . The dependence of adhesion s trength to the polystyrene foam as well as compressive strength of plaster hardening at tempe rature s (+5... -10) oC on PEG molecular weight was established.

This study investigates the influence of two fine mineral fillers on the main characteristics of tile adhesives – limestone powder and silica flour Silverbond 50. These fillers were added in various dosages: from 2.5% to 10% by weight of mixture.
