ResumoPartial least squares (PLS) regression models were developed to quantify CaCO 3 in cement and to study the CO 2 effect on the material matrix.PLS results presented good correlation coefficient (R 2 = 0.9995) and low estimation error (RMSEP = 3.61 mg CaCO 3 /g cement).From the results, it was observed that the portlandite consumption, the increase in CaCO 3 content and the C-S-H decalcification-polymerization are the most relevant cement chemical transformations.Thus, it was concluded that: i) it is possible to obtain fast, low-cost, and reliable models to quantify CaCO 3 by FTIR and ii) the method is applicable to study carbonated cement-based materials.
