Abstract:

This paper investigates the influence of slag particle size on its hydration speed at particle level in the early age. Slags were separated with sieves into groups of different size fractions, considering a wide r......

It is mentioned previously that the reactivity of slag is influenced by its fineness of grinding (specific surface area) that is determined by the sizes of slag particles. The finer the slag particles, the larger the surface area, which means higher hydration degree of slag.

However, if disregardin......
