Influence of Activation Parameters on the Mechanical and Microstructure Properties of an Alkali-Activated BOF Steel Slag

Steel slag (SS) is a secondary material from steelmaking production with little commercial value. Its volumetric expansion and low reactivity limit the use of SS in Portland cement (PC)-based materials. This study investigated the potential use of basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag as a single precurso...
