Granule Morphology of Supplementary Cementitious Materials under Different Cooling Conditions

Abstract:

Basic oxygen furnace slag (BOFS) , a mass supplementary cementitious materials, can be used as an active additive in building materials. The work present the result of granule morphology of two kinds of BOFS powder, cooled by water quenching (BOFS-W) and air splashing method(BOFS-A). Micrographs of two kinds of BOFS powder were observed with a scan electron microscope (SEM), then, length of major axis and minor axis of two-dimension projective outline of every granule in these SEM micrographs was measured manually and their ratio (RLB) was used to represent the granule sphericity. Each BOFS powder was divided into 6 parts with different granularity range. By means of measurement and statistical analysis, the average RLB value of granules with different granularity grade was obtained and the relation between size and sphericity of granule was explored. Result showed that BOFS-W is superior to BOFS-A in sphericity of granule. According to different granularity grade, statistical average values of RLB of BOFS-W and BOFS-A range 1.422-1.496 and 1.490-1.647, respectively. The difference of BOFS-W and BOFS-A on granule sphericity mainly is reflected in coarse granule.
