Alite

Alite is a name for tricalcium silicate, CaSiO, sometimes formulated as 3CaO·SiO (CS in cement chemist notation, CCN). It is the major, and characteristic, mineral phase in Portland cement. The name was given by Törneborn in 1897 to a crystal identified in microscopic investigation of Portland cement. Alite is a name in common use in the cement industry, although it is not a recognised mineral name.
