The principal hydraulic cements are: ... natural cement, a naturally occurring argillaceous limestone, calcined and pulverized, that is slower-setting and less uniform in quality than portland cement; aluminous, or high-alumina, cement, which consists mainly of calcium aluminates and is quick-strengthening and highly resistant to sulfate attack and high temperature; and expansive cements, which are usually of high sulfate and alumina contents, to produce expansion after hardening or to compensate for the expected drying shrinkage. 1, record 1, English, - quick%2Dsetting%20cement
