Microstructural changes induced by CO2 exposure in alkali-activated slag/metakaolin pastes

The structural changes induced by accelerated carbonation in alkali-activated slag/ metakaolin (MK) cements were determined. The specimens were carbonated for 540 h in an environmental chamber with a CO2 concentration of 1.0 ± 0.2%, a temperature of 20 ± 2ºC, and relative humidity of 65 ± 5 %. Accel...
