Abstract

The article presents the findings of the research concerning the usage of slowly cooled crystallized steelmaking slags, taken from slag disposal area, in the raw mix for autoclaved silicate materials. By means of dry milling and with the use of this slag the slag-containing binders of various compositions and basicity were prepared. The application of steelmaking slags in the raw mix allows intensifying the process of new formations synthesis and increasing the amount and crystallization degree of low-basic calcium silicate hydrates of the tobermorite group, which provides more than twofold increase of strength characteristics of the obtained materials as compared to the control sample.
