Alkali Activated Slag Mortars Provide High Resistance to Chloride-Induced Corrosion of Steel [PDF]
The pore solutions of alkali-activated slag cements and Portland-based cements are very different in terms of their chemical and redox characteristics, particularly due to the high alkalinity and high sulfide content of alkali-activated slag cement ...

Synthesis of kaolin-based alkali-activated cement: carbon footprint, cost and energy assessment
The main purpose of the work reported herein is to use kaolin to produce one-part alkali-activated cement. Thermal activation was performed on kaolin in the presence of alkalis (calcium oxide, sodium silicate, and sodium carbonate).

Geopolymer Cement Based on Alkali Activated SlagGeopolymer Cement Based on Alkali Activated Slag
The aim of this investigation is to prepare geopolymer cement by mixing various amounts of granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) with Fly ash (FA) and cement kiln dust (CKD). Seven blends are prepared using 100 % slag , 95% slag+5% CKD or fly ash , 90% slag + 10% CKD or Fly ash and 85% slag + 15% CKD or Fly ash .

Dry powder alkali-activated slag cements [PDF]
This paper reports on the results of an investigation into the possibility of producing dry powder alkali-activated slag cements as a ready-to-use product which can be packed in bags and mixed with water to produce a concrete. The cements were produced using a neutral granulated blast-furnace slag and sodium carbonate.
