The effect of the pH of the reaction solution on the crystallization process and the ettringite morphology is theoretically substantiated and experimentally proved. Using physical and chemical research methods, the dependence of the morphology of crystallizing ettringite on the pH value of the reaction solution was established. It has been established that by introducing mineral micro fillers into the composition of expanding cement, it is possible to actively influence the pH value, the morphology of the resulting ettringite, the expansion kinetics, and the strength of cement stone and concrete based on it. The studies of the technical properties of concrete on the basis of expanding cements of various types have shown that with the introduction of micro fillers into the concrete composition, which intensify volume expansion during hydration of cement stone at the building site or factories for the production of ready-mixed concrete, it is possible to control the kinetics and extent of expansion, expansion pressure, deformative and strength characteristics of concrete and reinforced concrete structures.
