Abstract

This invention relates to a method of producing enhanced strength portland cements. Under the process of this invention, certain portland cements, in particular those containing at least 4% C.sub.4 AF and up to 0.2% of a strength enhancing additive comprising triisopropanolamine, exhibit a marked increase in 7 and 28 day compressive strength. The triisopropanolamine strength enhancing additive may be admixed with cement powder or may be interground as a grinding aid with cement clinkder during finish milling.
