Slag cement is hydraulic cement shaped; when Granulated Blast-Furnace Slag (GBFS) is Ground (GGBFS) to appropriate fineness; is used to substitute a portion of Portland Cement. Blast Furnace Slag in fact is a recovered industrial by-product of an iron blast furnace. The slag which is molten and diverted from the iron blast furnace is quickly chilled. So, it creates hyaline granules; which yield desired reactive cementitious features when crushed and ground into cement fineness.
While there are many benefits and usages of slag cement, a few of them are emphasized below:
· Enhanced workability
· Simpler placeability and finishabiltiy
· Decreased permeability
GBFS is great to work with. Besides, in adverse weather conditions, you will find GGBFS easier to handle and place with accuracy.
GGBFS is Less water required for given workability and a better pumping property due to increased cohesion of the mix.
