Overview

Experiments reveal chloride penetration and strength of alkali-activated mortar with EAFS, suggesting its durability in construction.

Key Points

  • Alkali-activated mortar shows remarkable strength with a compressive strength of 35.8 MPa, indicating its efficacy in construction.
  • The mortar exhibits a moderate level of chloride penetration, underscoring its durability compared to traditional cement mortars.
  • With only an 11% strength loss at 800 degrees Celsius, alkali-activated mortar proves resilient in extreme conditions.
  • Tests demonstrate that using electric arc furnace slag as both a binder and aggregate enhances the performance of construction materials.
