Properties and durability of alkali-activated ladle slag
Abstract This paper examines the durability of alkali activated ladle slag mortars. Ladle slag, currently an under-utilized crystalline metallurgical by-product, is a promising raw material for alkali activation. However, there is no information about the durability of this material. The aim of this study is to investigate the durability of the alkali activated ladle slag mortar and the effect of aggregate content on the properties. The mechanical strength tests were carried out at 7, 28, 56 and 90 days. In addition, the samples were subjected to drying shrinkage, freeze–thaw, and water absorption tests. Furthermore, the reaction products conversion related to the strength properties were also analysed through thermal analysis. Overall, significant strength and durability properties was attained and significantly influenced by the mix design.
