  • The deformation of alkali-activated materials at different curing temperatures [Elektronski vir]
    Češnovar, Mark, 1983- ; Traven, Katja, kemičarka ; Ducman, Vilma
    Alkali activation is a chemical process whereby materials rich in aluminosilicate, which dissolves in basic media at room temperature, form binding phases by polycondensation. The alkali- activated ... materials (AAM) are a promising alternative to binding materials such as cement or other products in civil engineerin g (van Deventer et al., 2012). This study investigates the early age shrinkage behavior of Slovenian ladle and electric arc furnace slag - based alkali activated materials at different curing temperatures. The dimensions of specimens cured at room temperatur e and elevated temperatures up to 90 °C were measured over the first 7 hours (every 10 min). The results show that the most shrinkage occurred at the highest temperature, owing to the highest rate of evaporation of liquid content. Loss of mass follows from the drying shrinkage.
