“…For example, and to mention just a few cases: - ✓ Alkaline activation (with salts such as carbonates, sulphates, silicates, etc.) of mixtures of blast furnace slag (AAS), fly ash and small proportions of clinker, at room temperature, can achieve compressive strengths of more than 40 MPa (more than enough for most of the applications in architecture and civil engineering) ( Donatello et al, 2013 ; Garcia-Lodeiro et al, 2013a ; Martauz et al, 2016 ; du Toit et al, 2018 ).
- ✓ For synthetic glasses, depending on the CaO content and the activation conditions, it is possible to generate materials with compressive strengths of between 10 and 60 MPa ( Buchwald, 2012 ; Garcia-Lodeiro et al, 2016a ; Ruiz-Santaquiteria et al, 2016 ).
