Sun, Yubo (author), Mohan, Manu K. (author), Tao, Yaxin (author), Zhang, Yi (author), Van Tittelboom, Kim (author), Ye, G. (author), De Schutter, Geert (author)To properly control the reaction kinetics and fresh properties evolution in conventional alkali-activated materials (AAMs), a conceptual design of two-stream AAMs has been proposed in this study. This is achieved by dividing the solid and liquid components in AAMs, including blast furnace slag (BFS) and electric arc furnace slag (EFS)...journal article 2024

(author), De Schutter, Geert (author)This study aims to interpret the early-stage rheology of alkali-activated slag (AAS) paste from microstructure perspectives. The microstructures visualized by cryogenic scanning electron microscopy (cryo-SEM) revealed the essential distinction between hydroxide and silicate-activated slag pastes. The hydroxide-based mixture showed typical...journal article 2022
