Ground granulated blast-furnace slag shows very high strength when proper alkali-activator exists. This paper deals with setting time, heat evolution rate and the strength development of alkali-activated slag cement activated by KOH, Ca(OH$)_{2}$, $Na_{2}$ $So_{4}$ , and alum(potassium aluminum sulfate). Alkali-activated slag mortar is studied by comparison with GGBF slag cement mortar. The experimental results indicate that for moisture curing at $25^{\circ}C$, the addiction of either 4% $Na_{2}$ $So_{4}$ or 4% alum increases the strength of GGBF slag cement mortar consisting of 50% GGBF slag and 50% portland cement at early age. Strength of activated GGBF slag cement mortars at 1, 3 and 7 days exceeded that of GGBF slag cement mortar. A conduction calorimeter was used to monitor early age hydration.

The aim of the present study is to investigate some characteristics of concrete according to addition of blast furnace slag and alkali-activator dosages. Blast furnace slag was used at 30%, 50% replacement by weight of cement, and liquid sulfur having NaOH additives was chosen as the alkaline activator. In order to evaluate characteristics of blast furnace slag concrete with sulfur alkali activators, compressive strength test, total porosity, chloride ions diffusion coefficient test were performed. The early-compressive strength characteristics of blast furnace slag concrete using a sulufr-alkali activators was compared with those of reference concrete and added 30, 50% blast furnace slag concrete. Also, Blast furnace slag concrete using sulfur-alkali activators enhanced the total porosity, chloride ions diffusion coefficient than two standard concrete. Alkali-activated blast furnace slag concrete was related to total porosity, compressive strength and chloride ions diffusion coefficient each others. As a result, it should be noted that the sulfur-alkali activators can not only solve the demerit of blast furnace slag concrete but also offer the chloride resistance of blast furnace slag concrete using sulfur alkali activators to normal concrete.

이 연구에서는 산업부산물인 알카리활성 슬래그와 알칼리 활성화제 (물유리, 수산화나트륨)에 강섬유를 사용하였으며, 이를 철근콘크리트 보에 적용하여 휨성능 평가를 하였다. 주요변수는 알칼리 활성화제의 혼입비율 및 강섬유를 혼입으로 총 8개의 실험체를 제작하였으며, 재료 및 구조성능 평가를 위한 실험을 수행한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 친환경 알카리활성 슬래그 섬유보강콘크리트를 사용한 철근콘크리트 보는 전반적으로 휨 또는 휨-전단에 의하여 파괴되었다. 그리고 수산화나트륨의 몰 증가와 강섬유를 보강한 결과 최대내력이 15.8~25.9% 증가한 값이 나타났으며, 연성 또한 높게 나타났다. 친환경 알카리활성 슬래그 섬유보강콘크리트는 기존의 콘크리트를 대체할 수 있는 기초연구로서 향후 건설소재 및 재료분야에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료되며, 이러한 특성을 바탕으로 콘크리트 2차 제품 생산과 구조부재를 PC화하여 활용할 경우 생산성 향상, 공기단축 등 효율이 상승될 것으로 보인다.

Five all-lightweight alkali-activated (AA) slag concrete mixes were tested according to the variation of water content to examine the significance and limitation on the development of cementless structural concrete using lightweight aggregates. The compressive strength development rate and shrinkage strain measured from the concrete specimens were compared with empirical models proposed by ACI 209 and EC 2 for portland cement normal weight concrete. Splitting tensile strength, and moduli of elasticity and rupture were recorded and compared with design equations specified in ACI 318-08 or EC 2, and a database compiled from the present study for ordinary portland cement (OPC) lightweight concrete, wherever possible. Test results showed that the slump loss of lightweight AA slag concrete decreased with the increase of water content. In addition, the compressive strength development and different mechanical properties of lightweight AA slag concrete were comparable with those of OPC lightweight concrete and conservative comparing with predictions obtained from code provisions. Therefore, it can be proposed that the lightweight AA slag concrete is practically applicable as an environmental-friendly structural concrete.

The purpose of this study is to investigation the fundamental properties of alkali activated slag of type and concentration of alkali activator. In this paper sodium silicate, sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide were used as alkaline activator and their concentration were 1, 3, 5 and 7 $Na_2O$ weight percent.

시멘트를 전혀 사용하지 않고 슬래그와 같은 산업 부산물과 알칼리 활성화제를 사용하여 콘크리트를 제조하면 천연자원 및 에너지 고갈 문제와 이산화탄소 배출에 의한 환경오염을 해결할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 현재까지 알칼리 활성화제를 사용한 무시멘트 콘크리트의 연구는 주로 재료적인 분야에 대해서만 수행되어지고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 무시멘트 콘크리트를 구조재료로 사용하기 위해서는 구조 부재 거동 등에 대한 연구가 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 50 MPa급 알칼리 활성 슬래그 콘크리트를 사용한 철근콘크리트 보부 재 3개를 제작하여 휨실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과를 검증하기 위하여 알칼리 활성 슬래그 콘크리트의 탄성계수와 응력-변형률 관계를 이용한 비선형 해석 모델을 제안하였으며, 제안된 해석 모델을 이용하여 해석을 수행한 결과, 해석결과와 실험결과가 비교적 잘 일치하여 제안된 해석 모델은 적절한 것으로 판단된다.

Alkali-activated slag concretes are being extensively researched because of its potential sustainability-related benefits. For such concretes to be implemented in large scale concrete applications such as infrastructural and building elements, it is essential to understand its early and long-term performance characteristics vis-a'-vis conventional ordinary portland cement (OPC) based concretes. This paper presents a comprehensive study of the property and performance features including early-age isothermal calorimetric response, compressive strength development with time, microstructural features such as the pore volume and representative pore size, and accelerated chloride transport resistance of OPC and alkali-activated binder systems. Slag mixtures activated using sodium silicate solution ($SiO_2$-to-$Na_2O$ ratio or $M_s$ of 1-2) to provide a total alkalinity of 0.05 ($Na_2O$-to-binder ratio) are compared with OPC mixtures with and without partial cement replacement with Class F fly ash (20 % by mass) or silica fume (6 % by mass). Major similarities are noted between these binder systems for: (1) calorimetric response with respect to the presence of features even though the locations and peaks vary based on $M_s$, (2) compressive strength and its development, (3) total porosity and pore size, and (4) rapid chloride permeability and non-steady state migration coefficients. Moreover, electrical impedance based circuit models are used to bring out the microstructural features (resistance of the connected pores, and capacitances of the solid phase and pore-solid interface) that are similar in conventional OPC and alkali-activated slag concretes. This study thus demonstrates that performance-equivalent alkali-activated slag systems that are more sustainable from energy and environmental standpoints can be proportioned.

The present tests examined the resistance to freezing and thawing of alkail-activated (AA) slag concrete having compressive strength between 30~56 MPa. To enhance the compressive strength and resistance to freezing and thawing of AA slag concrete, Na ions were used for an activator. Test results revealed that the resistance to freezing and thawing of AA slag concrete is comparable to that of cement concrete when compressive strength is more than 50 MPa.

PURPOSES : This study set out to investigate the fundamental properties of alkali-activated concrete (AAC) using modified slag as the pavement maintenance material. METHODS: The material properties of modified slag based alkali-activated concrete (MSAAC) were analyzed and evaluated against those of alkali-activated slag concrete (AASC). Several mix formulations were considered, including one MSACC and four AASCs. The main variables considered in the study were slump, air content, compressive strength, rapid chloride permeability test, scaling resistance, freeze-thaw test, XRD, SEM, and EDS. RESULTS: MSAAC exhibits a compressive strength in excess of 21 MPa six hours after curing. Also, the charge passed of the MSACC was found to be less than 2000 coulombs after seven days and about 1000 coulombs after 28 days. The weight loss determined from a scaling test did not exceed $1kg/cm^2$ in the case of the MSACC, but that of the AASCs had already exceeded $1kg/cm^2$ at the 10th cycle. Based on the results of the freeze-thaw test, the relative dynamic modulus of every mix was found to be in excess of 90%. An energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS) analysis found that the weight rate percentage of the calcium and aluminum in the MSAAC mix is twice that of the AASC mixes. CONCLUSIONS : It was found that the MSAAC mix exhibits significantly better performance than AASC mixes, based on various fundamental properties.

이 연구는 혼합 알칼리 활성화 슬래그 모르타르의 압축강도에 미치는 영향에 관한 것이다. 활성화제의 효과는 활성화제의 종류, 농도 등이 강도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져있다. 혼합 활성화제는 5가지 가소성 알칼리(수산화나트륨, 수산화칼슘, 수산화마그네슘, 수산화알루미늄, 수산화칼륨)와 탄산나트륨($Na_2CO_3$)를 혼합하였다. 배함은 각 활성화제를 1M, 2M, 그리고 3M의 서로 다른 농도로 하였다. 압축강도 결과는 혼합 알칼리 활성화 슬래그 모르타르는 탄산나트륨의 농도가 증가하면 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 혼합 활성화제를 사용한 알칼리 활성화 슬래그 모르타르는 모든 재령과 시험체가 탄산나트륨을 혼합하지 않은 컨트롤 케이스보다 향상된 강도를 나타내었다. 전자주사현미경(SEM) 관찰 결과 활성화 반응으로 C-S-H와 aluminusilicate gel이 생성된 것을 볼 수 있었다.
