SLAG CEMENT UTILIZATION: RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES AND RELATED CHARACTERIZATION

Mortars prepared from slag-cement blends have been shown to exceed or equal the strengths of portland cement mortars at 7 to 28 days. Such cements have further potential advantages in their performance with regard to durability, and in their early stage properties which govern workability. The early stage rheological properties including mortar flow, yield stress, and viscosity were investigated, combined with zeta potential measurements, and used to explain the excellent workability. The working time of slag cement may be extended to later ages compared with portland cements through use of superplasticizers. (TRRL)
