Abstract:Alkali-activated slag (AAS) is beneficial for resource conservation in that it consumes little primary industrial energy, and it also performs well in terms of its mechanical properties and durability. However, its higher autogenous shrinkage compared to OPC mortars is a serious issue impeding AAS-based binder development for practical applications. This study investigated the feasibility and performance of active recycled aggregates when applied as man-made internal curing agents (MAs) for AAS mortars. They w… Show more
