A composite mineral binder was prepared by mixing ground granulate blast furnace slag (GGBS) and steel slag (GGBS/steel slag ratios are 1 : 1 or 3 : 2 by mass). The application of a composite binder in a massive concrete structure under severe sulphate attack is discussed by determining the hydration heat, adiabatic temperature increase, compressive strength, elastic modulus, chloride ion permeability, and sulphate attack resistance. The results show that the hydration heat of the composite binder decreases greatly when the cement replacement ratio increases to 50% at 45°C. The adiabatic temperature rise of the concrete containing the composite mineral admixture decreases significantly. Concrete containing the composite mineral admixture has a lower early elastic modulus and satisfactory late-age compressive strength. The composite mineral admixture can improve the resistance to chloride ion permeability and sulphate attack resistance of concrete, especially during temperature match curing.

The strength, expansion and amount of scaling of concrete with compound mineral admixture (CMA) from steel slag, granulated blast furnace slag and fly ash were studied. The result shows that damage by crystallization press from sulfate attack when concrete was exposed to sulfate environments under wetting–drying alternation is much larger than that from sulfate chemical attack. Adding CMA to concrete could reduce the damage from expansion of concrete caused by sulfate chemical attack, but the resistance of concrete to damage by crystallization press from sulfate attack was remarkably reduced.

The shrinkage cracking of concrete plays an important role to the accelerated deterioration and shortening the service life of concrete structures. The mineral admixture will be a perfect component of high performance concrete and its utilization will be a valuable resource for recycling. Early age cracking characteristics of concrete with compound admixtures, such as steel slag, blast furnace slag, fly ash, are studied in this paper using plate test method. The better anti-cracking performance of concrete will be realized when blast furnace slag replacing cement at 30%, steel slag and fly ash as the equal mixture components replacing cement at 30%, three kinds of admixtures replacing cement at 30% under the proper proportion.

Recently, interest in environmentally friendly development has increased worldwide, especially in the construction industry. In this study, blast furnace slag powder (BFSP) and mixed steel fine aggregates were applied to cement mortars to reduce the environmental damage caused by the extraction of natural aggregate and to increase the recycling rate of steel by-products in the construction industry. We investigated the fluidity, compressive strength, tensile strength, accelerated carbonation depth, and chloride ion penetration resistance of mortars with steel slag aggregate and their dependence on the presence or absence of BFSP. Because the recycling rate of ferronickel slag is low and causes environmental problems, we considered mortar samples with mixed fine aggregates containing blast furnace slag fine aggregate (BSA) and ferronickel slag fine aggregate (FSA). The results showed that the 7-day compressive strength of a sample containing both 25% BSA and 25% FSA was nearly 14.8% higher than that of the control sample. This trend is likely due to the high density and angular shape of steel slag particles. The 56-day compressive strength of the sample with BFSP and 50% FSA was approximately 64.9 MPa, which was higher than that of other samples with BFSP. In addition, the chloride ion penetrability test result indicates that the use of BFSP has a greater effect than the use of steel slag aggregate on the chloride ion penetration resistance of mortar. Thus, the substitute rate of steel slag as aggregate can be substantially enhanced if BFSP and steel slag aggregate are used in an appropriate combination.

The effects of blended steel slag-superfine fly ash mineral admixture and ordinary fly ash on the properties of concrete were compared in this study. The results show that, in the case of the same adding amount, blended steel slag-superfine fly ash mineral admixture and ordinary fly ash have similar effects on the early strength and chloride ion permeability of concrete. Blended mineral admixture has higher ability to improve the late strength of concrete than ordinary fly ash. Paste and concrete containing blended mineral admixture have smaller porosities than that containing ordinary fly ash. Blended steel slag-superfine fly ash is an ideal mineral admixture for concrete.

Over-sulfur phosphogypsum(PG)–ground granulate blast-furnace slag(GGBFS) cement paste is utilized by GGBFS, Portland cement clinker(PCC), additive, water and modificated phosphogypsum paste(MPG), produced by milling PG mixed with a certain proportion of steel slag(SS), GGBFS and water. The effect of PG on the properties of over-sulfur PG– GGBFS cement was investigated. The mechanical performances and hydration mechanism of the cement with different kinds, proportions and particle size of PG were analyzed based on setting time, volume stability, strength test, XRD and SEM analyses. The experimental results show that,the optimum mixture of PG amount in the binder was 45%. Overdose of PG may caused strength deterioration. The optimum grinding time of MPG in the binder was 20min. The soluble phosphorus content of PG in the binder was under 0.05%.

A composite mineral admixture was prepared by steel slag and superfine blast furnace slag. The influence of superfine blast furnace slag content of the composite mixture on the mortar and concrete was investigated. The results show that the composite mineral admixture may decrease the strength of concrete at the early age but improve the strength development over time. Increasing the content of superfine blast furnace slag can reduce the degradation of the early strength. The reduction of the autogenous shrinkage and adiabatic temperature rise is significant when the composite mineral admixture is added. The reduction is more obvious when the water-to-solid ratio (w/s) is low. The results show that with steel slag and superfine blast furnace slag playing as complementary parts in the composite mineral admixture, it can be used as an effective substitute of cement.

Fly ash (FA) and granular blast-furnace slag (GBFS) are usual mineral admixtures to conventional concrete, and their contents substituted for Portland cement definitely affect development rate of strength of concrete. C30 and C60 concrete samples with FA and/or GBFS were prepared to study the influence of substitution content of the mineral admixtures on 3 d, 7 d and 28 d strength. The results reveal that the development rate of strength in period from 3 d to 7 d gets slow with increasing content of mineral admixtures except for concrete with only GBFS less than 20%. In the case of substituting FA as the only mineral admixture for part of cement, the development rate of strength of C30 concrete in period from 7 d to 28 d keeps roughly constant even that of C60 concrete increases. When substituting mineral admixtures in the presence of GBFS for cement within experimental range, the development rate of strength in period from 7 d to 28 d gets fast with increasing substitution content. The enhancing effect of combining FA and GBFS occurs in period from 7 d to 28 d for both C30 and C60 concretes (FA+GBFS≤40%), even occurs in period from 3 d to 7 d for C60 concrete. Based on 7 d strength and the development rate, 28 d strength of concrete can be predicted accurately.
