The Effect of Fine Dispersed Slag Component on the Slag Portland Cement Properties

Abstract:

Cement compositions based on slag Portland cement and fine dispersed slag component are considered. It has been established that the introduction of 1-3% fine slag obtained as a result of ultrafine grinding in a jet mill into the slag Portland cement composition provides an increase in the strength and structural characteristics of cement stone from the first day of hardening, which is important for slag cements. To ensure the fine dispersed slag particles’ stabilization in the cement matrix, the cement compositions were sealed with water with the addition of a plasticizer on either sulfa-naphthalene formaldehyde or polycarboxylate substrates in an amount of 0.5% of the cement composite content. In the research course it was found that in the initial stages of hardening and grade age, the strength of the samples containing a fine dispersed slag component and a sulfa-naphthalene formaldehyde-based plasticizer increased by 20%. When the cement composition is mixed with water with a polycarboxylate-based plasticizer, an increase in strength in the initial period of hardening by 60% is noted, at the vintage age - by 30%. At the same time, the porosity of the samples based on slag Portland cement with the addition of fine dispersed slag and one of the plasticizers in the initial period was reduced by 16-21%, at the vintage age - by 33-35%.
