The present work aimed at accelerating the early hydration rate of sodium sulfate (Na 2 SO
4) activated slag via nano magnesia (nM). Slag was activated by two Na 2 SO 4 …

The fresh properties of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) have garnered significant
consideration due to their significant influence on the physical and mechanical behavior of …

The use of high-volume fly ash (HVFA) in cement-based materials can significantly reduce
the CO 2 emissions. Nevertheless, slow strength development becomes the barrier for HVFA …

The hydration characteristics, performance, and economic feasibility of inorganic
cementitious materials prepared using circulating fluidized bed fly ash (FA), carbide slag …

The present paper focuses on synthesizing an alkali-activated binder, in which magnesium
carbonate (MC) was the only precursor. MC was individually activated with sodium …
