Abstract
A laboratory test was carried out to investigate the influence
of stannous sulphate on the cement setting time and strength.
The cement mortar specimens were prepared using grade
32.5 slag cement as binder material and different percentage
of stannous sulphate as additive. Experimental results
showed that the initial and final setting time of slag cement
increased about 3-9 times with the increase of the additive
percentage. However, the compression strengths of
specimens showed non-monotonic change with the increase
of additive ratio implying that an optimal additive
percentage exists. The retarding mechanism of stannous
sulphate was also explained through Taylors model.

Introduction
Tin salt, as a kind of important industrial products, has
been widely used in electroplating, ceramics, plastics
and other industries. In recent years, with the further
study of tin salt, it was found that tin salt has some
influences on the cement setting time, strength,
stability, detoxification and the corrosion resistance of
concrete (Sing Tsze Yue, 1977; J. Hill, J.H. Sharp*, 2003;
K.K. Sagoe-Crentsil, F.P. Glasser, V.T. Yilmaz, 2008;
Rina S. Vaity, K. J. Somaiya, 2011.). Nabajyoti
Saikia(2011) found that 0.5% and 1% of tin salt could
promote the hydration influence of C3A, while 2% of
tin salt has inhibitory influence in the early stage
hydration (< 3 h) . J.Hill (2003) pointed out that SnCl2
could block the setting time of cement. Sing Tsze(1977)
made the point that the stannous sulfate has the effect
on the cement hydration hardening rate and setting
time.
Stannous sulfate as an important part in the tin salt, its
influence on cement has attracted more and more
attention. To study the relationship between stannous
