Composite systems fluorgypsum-blastfurnance slag-metakaolin, strength and microstructures
The hydration and properties of composite cementitious pastes with 75% fluorgypsum were investigated; blastfurnace slag and metakaolin were the complementary cementitious materials. The pastes were cured under water at 20 degree C for 360 days. All pastes developed and maintained strength under water, except those of commercial gypsum. The addition of metakaolin had a positive effect, after 360 days compressive strengths of 13.4, 13.8 and 14.6 MPa were registered for systems with 0%, 5% and 10% of metakaolin, respectively. The microstructure of the composite pastes was formed of a framework of gypsum crystals, which formed in the initial stages; the matrix was later densified by the formation of C-S-H and ettringite, as a result of the slag and metakaolin reactions. The fluorgypsum reacted rapidly in the first days, however it was still present after one year; the slag reacted in a slower fashion, and the metakaolin was very reactive and contributed with the ettringite since the early ages, which enhanced the strength.
