Development of shrinkage reducing admixtures designed for alkali activated materials
Šístková, Pavlína ; Bílek, Vlastimil (referee) ; Kalina, Lukáš (advisor)
This thesis deals with development of shrinkage reducing admixtures designed for alkali activated materials based on blast furnace slag. The main task of this work is to select the most suitable shrinkage reducing admixture based on experiments, in which can be observed minimal shrinkage and at the same time it will not adversely affect the properties of alkali activated blast furnace slag. In the experimental part of the work, test beams containing shrinkage reducing admixtures were prepared, in which the shrinkage and loss of weight were measured. Moreover, the mechanical properties of individual beams, such as tensile strength and compressive strength, were measured. Next, the surface tension of individual shrinkage reducing admixtures was measured in a mixture with pore solution. The hydration process of alkali activated materials under the action of reducing shrinkage admixtures was monitored by calorimetric analysis. The microstructure of the prepared samples was observed by scanning electron microscopy.

Influence of inorganic admixtures on shrinkage reduction of alkali activated materials
Šístková, Pavlína ; Koplík, Jan (referee) ; Kalina, Lukáš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on the influence of inorganic admixtures on shrinkage reduction of alkali activated materials. In the theoretical part the issue of alkali activated materials is explained in detail focusing on the reduction of their shrinkage. Alkali activated system is constituted by alkali activated blast furnace slag. Firstly, the effect of inorganic dashes is monitored such as low calcium fly ash and finely ground limestone. Furthermore, the influence of inorganic additives for reducing shrinkage has been studied, namely magnesium oxide and calcium oxide. The aim of this work is to determinate the mechanical properties and shrinkage of individual alkali activated mixture and then discuss whether there was a reduction of shrinkage and what the effect of added dashes and inorganic admixtures was.
