Ye'elimite occurs in nature and in calcium sulfoaluminate cements. The thermodynamic properties of synthetic orthorhombic ye'elimite, Ca4Al6O12SO4, were determined experimentally using low-temperature relaxation calorimetry and at higher temperatures using differential scanning calorimetry and drop calorimetry. The heat capacity, Cp, of 480 J/mol/K and standard entropy, S◦, of 487 J/mol/K at 298 K were measured. These values compare well with those calculated by density functional theory. Heat of dissolution measurements give an enthalpy of formation, ΔfH◦, of -8382.5 kJ/mol for ye'elimite. Heat of reaction measurements for nano-crystalline Al(OH)3 give ΔfH◦ = 1276 kJ/mol. The resulting calorimetric-based enthalpies were used to calculate the degree of ye'elemite hydration. A solubility product, KS0,ye'elimite, of 10 -1.4 at 298 K was calculatedfrom the enthalpy and entropy values. Pore solution composition indicates the presence of a hydroxylated surfacelayer on ye'elimite, which results in a lower solubility with KS0,surface ≈1019 for the reaction Ca4Al6O12SO4 +12H2O0 → 4Ca2+ + 6Al(OH)-4 + SO2-4
