Abstract
This paper deals with hydrothermal stability of inorganic aluminosilicate polymers, which were prepared by mixing blast furnace slag, fly ash and cement kiln dust in ratio 4:2:1. Cement kiln dust was used as alkaline activator with 4M sodium hydroxide solution. Samples were cured under hydrothermal conditions up to 170 °C for 24h and changes in mechanical properties, phase composition and porosity were monitored. During the hydrothermal process, the formation of zeolite from cancrinite group was monitored. The effect of the change of composition on the thermal expansion/shrinkage was studied by thermal dilatometry. Autoclaved samples were subjected to significant irreversible shrinkage during heating to 900 °C.
