Abstract

The influence of phosphate slag with different finenesses and activators on the hydration of high-belite cement has been studied by using the hydration heat of binders, the DTA curves, the SEM images, and the specific strength. Results indicated that doped phosphorus slag in the cement will reduce heat of hydration. The activity of phosphate slag was low at early stage, but pozzolanic activity of phosphorus slag is higher than that of fly ash. Increasing the specific surface area and curing time and using Ca(OH)2 combined with gypsum can clearly promote the hydration degree of phosphorus slag. The findings in this paper show that since phosphorus slag can promote the hydration of high-belite cement, the strength contribution of cement is increased. Moreover, the greater the specific surface area is, the more significant the promotion effect at 90 d is.
