Cement composition for the manufacture of fine-grained concrete, capable of self-destruction in aquatic environment

A composition of fine-grained concrete is proposed, capable of self-destruction in water after holding firm for a period from 7 days to 2-3 months. Self-destroying concrete, whose main components include Portland cement, gypsum and aluminate (high-alumina) cement may be of interest in offshore geological prospecting for the manufacture of temporary anchors to fix exploration equipment.
