Shrinkage mechanisms of alkali-activated slag [PDF]
Abstract In this work, the physical and chemical changes of alkali-activated slag (AAS) after a prolonged drying treatment under various relative humidity (RH) conditions were studied. The results show that the shrinkage kinetics of AAS is strongly dependent on the RH, but irrespective of the moisture loss.
