| description | Titanium-containing carbide slag (TCS) is the product obtained by high-temperature carbothermal reduction in Titanium-bearing blast furnace slag (TBFS), which contains a large amount of TiC phase with excellent electrical conductivity. In this paper, conductive cement mortar was prepared with TCS as an aggregate and graphite as a conductive phase. The content of graphite on the compressive strength and electrical resistivity of the prepared cement mortar was investigated. The results showed that the replacement of standard sand with TCS as an aggregate not only significantly reduced the electrical resistivity of the cement mortar, but also improved its compressive strength. When the graphite content was 10 wt%, the cement mortar with TCS as the aggregate exhibited excellent comprehensive performance with the 28d compressive strength of 34.0 MPa and the electrical resistivity of 2.9 Ω m in dry condition, respectively. The results of this paper provided a new way both for the utilization of TBFS and the preparation of conductive cement mortars. |
