Hybrid systems based on alkali activated materials and Portland cement
Bradová, Lada ; Koplík, Jan (referee) ; Kalina, Lukáš (advisor)
The most promising route to improve the sustainability of cement is to produce the blended Portland cements with supplementary cementitious materials. Blast furnace slag (BFS) is one of the significant pozzolan source used worldwide in blended cements contributing to lowering of the environmental impact of cement industry. On the other hand, the replacement of the Portland clinker is connected with the undesirable effects such as reduction of early strength development. In order to overcome this disadvantage, the study deals with the development of hybrid cements in which the utilization of solid waste alkaline activator quickly awakens the pozzolanic properties of BFS. The new types of blended alkali activated cements were designed to meet the European standard EN 197 1 and classified to the Blastfurnace CEM III/C cements in accordance with the mechanical, physical, chemical and durability requirements. The effect of alkali activation caused an increase in early (2 days) compressive strength development in comparison with reference sample. The setting time was delayed two times which is also interesting from the point of view of concrete production. Moreover, this non traditional hybrid alkali activated Portland cement provides considerable ecologically and economically potential.
