Geopolymer Steel Slag Brick

Abstract:

Steel slag waste is a by-product of steel mining industry. Effort to utilize the steel slag in concrete production has been failed due to its high contents of MgO which causes volumetric instability of the hardened concrete. Researchers also have failed to utilize the steel slag in the sub-base of road construction due to its low compaction ratio. Geopolymer concrete is a new sustainable material made of mainly two materials which are alkali liquid and source material. The source material usually has to be pozzolanic. However, the chemical composition of the steel slag has shown that the steel slag is not considered as a pozzolanic in accordance to the requirement of the ASTM. Therefore, a special modification has been carried on and a geopolymer steel slag brick has been developed. The new developed geopolymer steel slag brick has compressive strength of about 10 MPa which is made the brick suitable for construction of a load bearing walls.
