Abstract Limestone has a low reactivity in cement-based material. However, when NaAlO2 is used as the activator, the limestone-based cementitious material with good property can be fabricated. Aiming to further analyze the cementitious phase in the NaAlO2-activated limestone paste and clarify the formation mechanism of its property, the reaction process, product proportion, mechanical property and microstructure characteristic of D1 (activated by NaAlO2) and D2 (activated by the mixture of NaOH and Al(OH)3 at a 1∶1 molar ratio) were compared and analyzed in this work. The experimental results showed that both D1 and D2 contained two exothermic peaks. The first peak corresponded to the dissolution of the activator, and the second peak was related to the formation of monocarboaluminate (Mc). The crystallization process of Mc in D1 was faster than that in D2, and the second exothermic peak appeared earlier in D1 than that in D2. In D1, partial NaAlO2 formed Mc. The other consumed part did not form crystal products. They formed the microcrystalline AH3 phase which was between crystal and amorphous state. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results indicated that the microcrystalline AH3 phase exhibited the diffraction characteristics of scattered diffraction spots on concentric rings. It had a smaller particle size than gibbsite and yielded a better cementitious characteristic. After curing 28 d, the compressive strength of D1 (22.80 MPa) was significantly higher than that of D2 (0.95 MPa), indicating that AH3 phase was an important cementitious phase in the NaAlO2-activated limestone paste.
