Synergistic Excitation Mechanism of CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-SO3 Quaternary Active Cementitious System

In this study, the influence of steel slag (SS) content on the strength of the cementitious materials was investigated. The quaternary active cementitious material (CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-SO3) was prepared using various proportions of steel slag (SS), granulated blast furnace slag (BFS), and desulfurized gy...
