The method of introducing of finely ground granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) in the composition of the cement as a result of dry mixing of the material with the additive is considered. The aim of the research was to study the effect of the addition of finely ground slag on the construction, technical, physical, mechanical, and structural characteristics of cement with mineral additives. The setting time was studied, the normal density of the cement paste with the addition of finely ground slag was determined. The dependences of the strength and porosity of the cement stone on the time of hydration of samples are built. The strength of the cement was determined by the national standard GOST 30744-2001. The porosity of the cement stone was determined by saturating the samples with an inert liquid. It has been established that the introduction of 3–5% of slag 1 and 1–3% of slag 2 provides an increase in the strength of cement stone during the first days of hardening on average by 37–44%; at the grade age - by 26–30%, decrease in porosity — by 17–28%. It is shown that the introduction of finely ground slag additives compacts and strengthens the structure of the cement stone. It has been established that grinding GBFS to a size of 1 μm (slag 1) is impractical because the obtained research results are comparable with the results when slag 2 is introduced into the cement composition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
