Performance of alkaline activated slag at high temperatures

This paper presents an investigation into the performance of alkali-activated slag (AAS) mortar exposed to elevated temperatures. Sodium silicate, sodium hydroxide and a mix (waterglass) with a modulus (SiO2/Na20) of 1.5 were used as activators. The specimens were heated in an electric furnace up to...
