Hydration of a low-alkali CEM III/B–SiO2 cement (LAC) (2012, result): “At longer hydration times less portlandite (relative to the amount of PC) was found than in PC [4,10,14–18].”
Characteristics of blended cements containing nano-silica (2013, background): “The presence of highly alkaline medium is required to disintegrate its acidic silicate– aluminate network [16–18].”
Strength and hydration properties of reactive MgO-activated ground granulated blastfurnace slag paste (2015, methodology): “The properties of alkali-activated slags (AAS) depend on several variables such as the GGBS composition [2], activator type and content [3,4], and curing conditions [5,6].”
Strength development of mortars containing ground granulated blast-furnace slag: Effect of curing temperature and determination of apparent activation energies (2006, background): “However, hydration of ggbs is much more sensitive to temperature than portland cement and there is evidence that at higher early age temperatures, the strength development of ggbs concrete is significantly enhanced [4,5].”
