In continuation of earlier work on early hydration, this study evaluates the late hydration of CAC and CaCO3 using QXRD and thermodynamic modelling at different temperatures. Experiments were performed at 5, 23, 40 and 60 °C for up to one year. As stated in the preceding study, C2AHX might act as a precursor for monocarbonate in early hydration, and thus no or only little monocarbonate should form at temperatures below 20 °C. At 5 °C, monocarbonate starts precipitating after 7 d and remains alongside CAH10. At all other investigated temperatures, monocarbonate is the dominant hydrate phase. Primarily formed CAH10 at 23 °C is visible up to 14 d but then becomes unstable with respect to monocarbonate. At 23 °C and 40 °C the thermodynamically stable phase assemblage is reached within one year. However, the precipitation of C3AH6 is detected in all samples at 60 °C, which results from an insufficient w/CAC ratio for carbonate-AFm in the paste due to the inevitable evaporation of mixing water for this condition. However, C3AH6 can partly be “re-converted” at 60 °C when the sample is subsequently stored under water and monocarbonate is stable again.
