Li, Z. (author), Beltran, Irving Alfredo Flores (author), Chen, Y. (author), Šavija, B. (author), Ye, G. (author)In this study, glass wool waste was utilized by means of alkali-activation with blast furnace slag. Reaction kinetics, workability, mechanical properties and autogenous shrinkage of alkali-activated slag and glass wool were comprehensively studied. Results indicated an optimal modulus (SiO<sub>2</sub>/Na<sub>2</sub>O) of the activator related...journal article 2021

Li, Z. (author), Wyrzykowski, Mateusz (author), Dong, H. (author), Granja, José (author), Azenha, Miguel (author), Lura, Pietro (author), Ye, G. (author)In this study, internal curing by superabsorbent polymers (SAP) is utilized to mitigate self-desiccation and autogenous shrinkage of alkali-activated slag (AAS) pastes. Absorption and desorption kinetics of SAP incorporated in AAS pastes were studied with X-ray tomography. Internal curing delayed the peak of the rate of heat liberation but...journal article 2020
