Tricalcium silicate(C3S) ALITE (gives early strength to cement....heat of hydration is 120 cal/gm)
Dicalcium silicate(C2S) BELITE (gives later strength ie after 7 days...less heat of hydration)
Tricalcium aluminate(C3A) CELITE (gives INITIAL strength...high heat of hydration ...320 cal/g)
Tetracalcium alumino ferrite(C4AF), FELITE (very high heat of hydration)
