Description
Summary:<p>Composite cements of Blast Furnace Slag (EAH) and Waste Glass (WG) were investigated. A fraction WG was subjected to mechanochemical activation aiming to solubilize its SiO<sub>4</sub> to obtain solutions of sodium silicate (SS) with silica modulus greater than zero to improve the compressive strength of the cements.  With the solutions obtained by AMQ, composites of 0 to 100% WG were prepared, and as referred to cements 100% BFS with standard alkaline activation. The strength of the latter decreased after increasing the Na<sub>2</sub>O content and decreased when the curing temperature was increased to 60<sup>o</sup>C. In contrast, 100% WG cements required very aggressive chemical activation conditions (12% Na<sub>2</sub>O at 60<sup>o</sup>C) to obtain good mechanical properties. The composites with 25 and 50% WG required activation conditions similar to those 100% EAH cements, while those cements with 75% WG required activation conditions similar to those of 100% WG.</p> <p> </p> <p>Keywords: waste glass, blast furnace slag, mechanochemical activation.</p><p> </p>
