Effect of Alkali and Sulfate on the Hydration Characteristic of Cement-Based Materials Containing Coal Gasification Slag
MATERIALS(2022)
摘要
Coal gasification slag is an inevitable by-product of the coal gasification process. This paper explored the feasibility of using activators (calcium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, calcium sulfate, sodium sulfate) to promote the pozzolanic activity of milled coal gasification coarse slags (MCS), and analyzed the effect of alkali and sulfate activators on the hydration characteristic of cement-based materials containing MCS. Coal gasification slags with ignition lossses more than 15% were removed and the remaining slags were considered as cementitious material after milling. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and hydration heat tests were employed to analyze the hydration mechanism of the samples. Besides, the compressive strength values of cement mortars with MCS and activators were evaluated. The results showed that calcium hydroxide was conductive to the formation of hydration products and its crystallization could contribute to the strength improvement of the sample. Calcium sulfate mainly participated in the hydration process of cement to form ettringite (AFt) phases. Sodium hydroxide could accelerate the dissolution of active mineral phases of MCS, resulting in the pozzolanic activity being enhanced. Moreover, sodium sulfate could not only increase the formation of AFt phases, but also improved the alkalinity in sample to facilitate the production of gels. Among them, a better promotion effect could be obtained from the combined application of calcium hydroxide and sodium sulfate. In addition, the compressive strength values of cement mortars containing MCS tended to increase when activators were used. The sample activated by calcium hydroxide and sodium sulfate exhibited the highest strength, increasing by 18.55% at 28 days compared with the sample without an activator.
