The paper covers the results of studies of the alkali activated slag cement concretes from the cements prepared under “all-in-one” technology to meet the requirements for concretes for marine engineering application.
The compressive strength, weather resistance, biodegradability, bonding strength with steel reinforcement bar, steel reinforcement bar protection, chlorine ions diffusion parameters and resistance to corrosive exposure of 5% Na2SO4 solution were tested, which exhibit that alkali activated slag cement and concretes are very suitable for marine engineering applications.
Shenzhen Academy of Aerospace Technology (Shenzhen, P.R.China) and Kiev National University of Civil Engineering and Architecture ( Kiev, Ukraine) are jointly conducting R&D works aimed at commercial-scale application of the alkali activated slag cements and concretes for the maritime concrete products since 2011.
