1. A composition comprising at least, in % expressed by mass relative to the total mass of the composition, - from 0.01 to 3 % of polycarboxylic acid or salts thereof, the said polycarboxylic acid comprising 2 to 4 carboxyl groups per molecule; and from 97 to 99.99 % of a Belite-Calcium-Sulphoaluminate-Ferrite clinker (BCSAF clinker) comprising at least, in % expressed by mass relative to the total mass of BCSAF clinker ■ from 5 to 30 %, of a calcium aluminoferrite phase of a composition con-esponding to the general fomiula C2AxF(i.x), wherein X is from 0.2 to 0.8; " from 10 to 35 %, of a calcium sulfoaluminate phase « ye'elimite » (C4A3$), ■ from 40 to 75 % of belite (CzS), ■ from 0.01 to 10 % of one or more minor phases selected from calcium sulphates, alkali sulphates, perovskite, gehlenite, free lime and periclase, and/or a vitreous phase, and for which the total of the percentages of these phases is greater than or equal to 97%.
2. The composition according to claim 1 characterised in that it comprises from 0.01 to 3 % of polycarboxylic acid, more preferably 0.03 to 1 %, most preferably 0.1 to 0.5 %, % by mass relative to the total mass of corhposition.
3. The composition according to claim 1 or claim 2 characterised in that it comprises at least one polycarboxylic acid or salts thereof selected from citric acid, malonic acid, malic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartric acid, succinic acid, ascortDic acid, glutamic acid or mixtures thereof.
4. The composition according to claim 3 characterised in that it comprises at least one citric acid or salts thereof.
5. The composition according to one of claims 1 to 4 characterised in that it further comprises an alkanolamine. ^^
6. The composition according to one of claim's 1 to 5 characterised in that the Belite-Calcium-Sulphoaiuminate-Ferrite clinker (BCSAF clinker) does not comprise a mineralogical phase C3S.
7. A cement comprising at least - from 30 to 99.9 % of a composition according to one of claims 1 to 6; and - from 0.1 to 40 % of calcium sulphate, % by mass relative to the total mass of cement; - from 0.1 to 70 % of mineral additions, % by mass relative to the total mass of cement.
8. The cement according to claim 7 characterised in that the mineral additions are selected from slags (as defined in the « Cement» NF EN 197-1 Standard, paragraph 5.2.2), steel industry slags, pozzolanic materials (as defined in the « Cement» NF EN 197-1 Standard, paragraph 5.2.3), fly ash (as defined in the « Cement » NF EN 197-1 Standard, paragraph 5.2.4), or limestones (as defined in the « Cement » NF EN 197-1 Standard, paragraph 5.2.6), or mixtures thereof.
9. A concrete or mortar comprising at least a BCSAF cement and at least one polycarboxylic acid or salts thereof, the said polycarboxylic acid comprising 2 to 4 carboxyl groups per molecule.
10. Use of at least one polycarboxylic acid or salts thereof to increase the mechanical strength of a BCSAF_cement after setting, the said polycarboxylic acid comprising 2 to 4 carboxyl groups per molecule. '
11. The use according to claim 10 characterised in that the said acid is present in the mixing water of the BCSAF cement.
12. A process for preparation of a concrete or of a mortar according to claim 9 comprising a step of mixing a BCSAF cement with aggregates, water, at least one polycarboxylic acid or salts thereof and optionally additives, the said polycarboxylic acid comprising 2 to 4 carboxyl groups per molecule.
13. Elements for the construction field made using the concrete or the mortar according to claim 9 or the cement according to one of claims 7 or 8.
