The invention discloses a C3S (3CaO.SiO2) type sulfoaluminate cement clinker and a preparation method, coexistence of C3S (3CaO.SiO2) and C4A3S (anhydrous calcium sulphoaluminate) can be implemented under the condition of low temperature and high content of SO3, the C3S type sulfoaluminate cement clinker is prepared, and comprises the following chemical components: 45%-60% of CaO, 7%-13% of SiO2, 20%-35% of Al2O3, 1.6%-9% of Fe2O3, 5%-12% of SO3, 0.2%-1.0% of CaF2, 0.0%-0.2% of ZnO, the basicity coefficient cm is 1.2-1.5, and the aluminum and sulfur ratio is controlled in 5-4. The preparation method is as follows: the existing C2S (2CaO.SiO2) type sulphoaluminate cement clinker production line is used for production, and the difference is in firing temperature. The firing temperature of the C3S type sulfoaluminate cement clinker is 1220 DEG to 1320 DEG C, the optimum firing temperature is 1250 DEG to 1270 DEG, the firing temperature of the C3S type sulfoaluminate cement clinker is 30 DEG to 50 DEG C lower than the firing temperature of the C2S type sulfoaluminate cement clinker, and after firing, the C3S type sulfoaluminate cement clinker is drawn out of a kiln, and rapidly cooled. The C3S type sulfoaluminate cement clinker has high alkalinity, and can promote the hydration of the C4A3S (anhydrous calcium sulphoaluminate), so that prepared cement has high early strength, at the same time for the reason that activity of C3S is much higher than that of C2S, later strength support is provided while certain early strength is provided.
