Thecompressive strength, chloride permeability, carbonationdepth and drying shrinkage of concrete and the microstructurecharacteristics of hardened paste were studied. Results showthat the steam-cured concrete containing steel slag at a highwater-to-binder ratio has low compressive strength, coarsepore structure, moderate permeability, large carbonation depthand great drying shrinkage. The negative effects of steel slagon the mechanical and durability performance of steam-curedconcrete become smaller at a low water-to-binder ratio or byadding ultrafine ground granulated blast furnace slag（UGGBS）. The later-age hydration of cement is significantlypromoted by adding steel slag. The pozzolanic reaction andmicro-filler effect of UGGBS result in dense structure, whichmakes great contribution to the strength development anddurability performance of steam-cured concrete. These effectsof steel slag and UGGBS are significant at a low water tobinder ratio. The steam-cured concrete containing steel slag-UGGBS blended mineral admixture at a low water-to-binderratio has the best performance with high compressive strength,fine pore structure and good durability.展开更多

The composition of C-S-H gel was analysed with SEM-EDS. The obtained results showed that the volume fraction of LD C-S-H gradually reduced and the volume fraction of HD C-S-H increased with the prolongation of hydration age. Most of the C-S-H gel produced at later age was HD C-S-H. The volume fraction of HD C-S-H increased as the fraction of slag in complex binder pastes increased, suggesting that HD C-S-H was mainly in the hydration products of slag. The chemichal compositions of the two types of C-S-H gel were simlar, meaning that formation and transformation of the two types of C-S-H gel were not affected by their Ca/Si ratio.展开更多
