A method for making the cocoa pod husk-containing hardening-retarder from cocoa pod husks includes: fragmenting cocoa pod husks into husk fragments; drying the husk fragments under a temperature that ranges from 95 C. to 105 C.; grinding the husk fragments which are dried into a soluble powder; mixing the soluble powder with water to form a liquid mixture, wherein the liquid mixture contains from 20% to 40% of the soluble powder by weight and 60% to 80% of water by weight, based on 100% of the liquid mixture by weight; and filtering the liquid mixture with a filter having a pore size that ranges from 5 microns to 20 microns to obtain the cocoa pod husk-containing hardening-retarder.

A multi-component mortar system contains a curable aqueous-phase aluminous cement component A and an initiator component B in aqueous-phase for initiating the curing process. Component A further contains at least one plasticizer, water, and at least one blocking agent selected from phosphoric acid, metaphosphoric acid, phosphorous acid, and phosphonic acids. Component B contains an initiator, at least one retarder, at least one mineral filler, and water. A multi-component system is useful, which is ready-for-use, for chemical fastening of anchoring means, preferably of metal elements, in mineral surfaces, such as structures made of brickwork, concrete, pervious concrete or natural stone as well as its use for chemical fastening of anchoring means.
