Abstract |
This study investigates the mechanical properties and reaction products of activated slag pastes depending on gypsum presence and calciumcarbonate addition in terms of compressive strength tests and synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The chemicals of CaO and NaOH are used as activatorswith different two dosages. The reaction of CaO-activated slag without gypsum just accelerated by addition of calcium carbonate at early ages, butno improvement was observed at later ages. On the other hand, the mechanical properties of CaO-activated slag pastes with gypsum were improvedwith calcium carbonate, enhancing the stability of ettringite. The variation of mechanical properties of NaOH-activated slag pastes was negligibledepending on calcium carbonate addition in case of no gypsum. The addition of calcium carbonate into NaOH-activated slag pastes with gypsumdeteriorated its mechanical properties due to the ion competition between CO32- ions and SO32- ions, decreasing crystallinity of reaction products.
