  • Blast furnace slag(BFS) is well known for its hardening mechanism in ordinary Portland cement with alkali activation due to its latent hydraulic property. The possibility of using calcium compound as activator for BFS has been investigated in this study. The hydration properties of calcium compound activated BFS binders were explored using heat of hydration, powder X-ray diffraction and compressive strength testing. Heat of hydration results indicate that the hydration heat of BFS is lower than OPC paste by about 50%. And ettringite as hydration product was formed continuously as the calcium sulfate was decreased. The maximum compressive strength of hardened BFS mortar at 28 days is confirmed to be 83% as compared with hardened OPC mortar.

  • In order to see the effect of pH on the formation of ettringite, pH was controlled with addition of boric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and potassium hydroxide during the formation of ettringite. The behavior of ettringite formation was discussed with XRD, SEM analysis. The result was that ettringite was unstablely formed with stabilization of aluminate gel and gypsum at below PH 10.

  • This study was to review the basic characteristics in order to evaluate field application of the emergency road repair materials for development of CAC(Calcium Aluminate Composite) usage. The experiment was conducted with two phases of field and laboratory conditions and the laboratory experiment consisted indoor and outdoor tests for compressive and flexural strength. In the result of an experiment, for the compressive strength test, the specimens that cured in the laboratory conditions were not satisfied the requirement of standards, while the specimens that cured in the field conditions were well satisfied with those. For flexural strength test, the result value was satisfied with the requirement on the standards only in outdoor curing condition of laboratory experiment. Based on these results, it is expected that the CAC can be used as an emergency road repair material for field conditions.

  • In this study, microstructures and mechanical properties of repair materials using calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) and/or amorphous calcium aluminate (ACA) cements were experimentally investigated. By XRD ansysis, the hydrates formed in repair materials were identified. In addition, the microstructures of repair materials were visually examined through SEM observation. Setting time of mortars made with repair materials were measured. The strength development and ultrasonic velocity of the mortars were also evaluated at the predetermined ages. As a result, it seems that ACA showed a benefit effect with respect to mechanical properties of mortars.
