Setting control of alkali-activated systems
Komosná, Kateřina ; Novotný, Radoslav (referee) ; Kalina, Lukáš (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the possibilities of setting control of alkali-activated systems based on blast furnace slag. The aim of this work is finding the suitable retarder that most extends the time of setting and also preserves the mechanical properties of alkali-activated material. In experimental section were prepared samples of blast furnace slag, water glass, water and additives in various weight addition. Testing samples have undergone of flexural and compressive strength tests. Then the setting time was determined using the Vicat device. The samples were measured calorimetrically because of monitoring the setting process. Finally the mixtures were observed using scanning electron microscope for a closer view on the structure of samples and distribution of setting retarder.
