Sulfate resistant ground granulated blast furnace slag, sulfate resistant cement, and method of production of same

Abstract

In sulfate resistant cement obtained by mixing ground granulated blast furnace slag, Portland cement, and high-dissolution rate gypsum for raising the sulfate resistance, the high-dissolution rate gypsum differs in grain size and specific gravity from the Portland cement, so uniform mixture is not easy. To obtain sulfate resistant cement exhibiting homogeneous initial solidification, it is important to uniformly mix the blast furnace slag, Portland cement, and high-dissolution rate gypsum. Therefore, by premixing ground granulated blast furnace slag with an alumina content of 12 to 17.5% with high-dissolution rate gypsum and then mixing in Portland cement, it is possible to obtain uniformly mixed sulfate resistant cement. At this time, the high-dissolution rate gypsum may be hemihydrate gypsum, type III anhydrous gypsum, or anhydrous gypsum with a specific surface area of 8000Blaine or more.
