Influence of mineralogy on the hydraulic properties of ladle slag

Utilization of Ladle Furnace slag from a steelwork for laboratory scale production of Portland cement

“…In particular, the Fe 2 O 3 content that was reported (26.36%) is much higher than the typical Fe 2 O 3 content in LFS (<7 wt.%). This conclusion can be corroborated by reviewing the composition differences between EAF slag and LFS [65,66] More recently, Manso et al [33] and Rodriguez et al [34] examined the possibility of manufacturing mortars with LFS. The contents of CaO and MgO in the LFS used in these works were approximately 56% and 10%, respectively.…”

Design of masonry mortars fabricated concurrently with different steel slag aggregates

“…The characteristics of white LFS slags and their chemical compositions differ from those of black EAFS depending on the conditions and steel production techniques, as well as the scrap employed as a raw material [8].…”

Greener self-compacting concrete using stainless steel reducing slag

“…Shi [12] revealed that ladle slag fines passing through the +100 mesh do not show any cementitious property in water owing to containing a majority of c-C 2 S. However, more recently, a number of investigations have showed that fine-particles (less than 45 lm) steelmaking slag is potentially hydraulic as the presence of alkali activator [12], or, blast furnace slag, or OPC. Adolfsson et al [13] manifested that blending ladle slag with GGBFS would create a mortar with a slow hydration rate and superior in the 28-day strength in comparing with usage of ladle slag only. The LM slag was also employed as a part of sand and cement in mortar manufacturing for construction industry, published by Rodriguez et al [14].…”
