Applied Activation Techniques on Cement-Slag Mortars and ...
Sajedi, Fathollah
The use of ground granulated blast furnace slag (ggbfs) as a replacement material instead of cement has many advantages from environmental and economic viewpoints. Ggbfs improves the mechanical properties, but it is a material with latent potential whereas mortars and concretes incorporating ggbfs have lower early strength compared to cement mortars and concretes. This is a major loss and in order to overcome, it needs to be activated. Prior t...
