Ladle Furnace Slag as a Sustainable Binder for Masonry Mortars
Nowadays, the environmental aspect of industrial waste management has got urgent. The reusing of these residues in the civil building is increasing, since all industries have developed a growing concern for the emptying of natural resources. The ladle furnace slag (LDF-slag), a by-product of the secondary refining of steel, is mainly composed of calcium and calcium magnesium silicates. It has the potential to be a sustainable binder for mortars because the composition of LDF-slag is fairly similar to Portland cement (PC) clinker. Thus, this paper aims to improve the cementitious properties of LDF slag. The properties of cement mortars with LDF-slag were investigated including water demand of normal consistency, setting time and compressive strength. The experimental results show that the suitable specific surface area of LDF-slag is 1200 cm2/g (cement replacement amount is 20 wt%) and addition of LDF-slag with different fineness has retarding effect on cement.
