Using ground granulated blast-furnace slag to improve the self-degradation issue of liquid calcium aluminate cement mortar by Chia-Jung Tsai, Chung-Lin Lin, Chih-Wei Lu, Wen-Shinn Shyu, Leila Fazeldehkordi

“…The findings showed an optimal GGBS addition of 15% resulted in a 42.35% increase in compressive strength and a 31.23% reduction in water absorption. Microscopic structural analyses revealed that GGBS facilitated pozzolanic reactions, leading to the formation of stable Calcium-Aluminosilicate Hydrate (C-A-S-H) and Calcium Silicate Hydrate (C-S-H) gels, which mitigated self-degradation by reducing porosity. …”
