Abstract: The invention concerns a process for the preparation of a hardening accelerator composition by reaction of a water-soluble calcium compound with a water-soluble silicate compound and by reaction of a calcium compound with a silicon dioxide containing component under alkaline conditions, in both cases the reaction being carried out in the presence of a polycondensate containing at least one structural unit consisting of an aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety bearing a polyether side chain and at least one structural unit consisting of an aromatic or heteroaromatic moiety bearing at least one phosphoric acid ester group and/or its salt. The invention concerns a composition of calcium silicate hydrate and the polycondensate, its use as hardening accelerator and for the reduction of the permeability of hardened compositions.

Abstract: Dispersion which is free of binders and which contains silica and at least one superplasticizer, the silica being a precipitated silica having a surface area greater than 50 m2/g, the aggregates and/or agglomerates in the dispersion having a median diameter of less than 1 ?m and the proportion of silica being from 5 to 50% by weight, based on the total amount of the dispersion, and a process for the preparation thereof and the use thereof as a concrete admixture in cement-containing preparations.
