The influence of different replacement ratios of steel-slag powder as cement-replacement material on the fracture performance of concrete is studied in this paper. A three-point bending fracture test is carried out on slag powder-cement-based concrete (SPC)-notched beams with steel-slag powder as cementitious materials, partially replacing cement (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%). Load-deflection curves and load-crack-opening displacement curves of SPC-notched beams with five different replacement ratios of steel-slag powder were obtained. The effects of different steel-slag-powder replacement ratios on the fracture properties (fracture energy, fracture toughness, and double-K fracture parameters) of the SPC were analyzed and discussed. The results showed that the incorporation of appropriate steel-slag powder can affect the fracture performance of SPC. Compared with concrete without steel-slag powder, adding appropriate steel-slag powder can effectively improve the bond performance between aggregate and matrix because the steel-slag powder contains hydration activity substances such as calcium oxide and aluminium trioxide. The fracture energy and fracture toughness of SPC increased and then decreased with the increase in steel-slag-powder replacement ratios, and the SPC concrete showed best fracture performance with a 5% steel slag powder replacement ratio. Its fracture energy increases by 13.63% and fracture toughness increases by 53.22% compared with NC.

In this project, cement-based composites reinforced with slag powder (abbreviated as SP), steel slag powder (abbreviated as SSP), and desulfurization gypsum (abbreviated as FGD) were used as the research objects, and the preparation, mechanical properties, and strengthening mechanism of the composites were systematically studied. A laser particle analyzer (Malvern Instruments Analysis) was used to determine that the particle sizes of the raw SSP, SP, and FGD materials were concentrated between 5 and 40 μm, indicating that they were fine-grained minerals. SSP and SP are highly active alkaline substances.

Using steel slag (SS) as cementitious material and fine aggregate in concrete is an effective and environmental method for SS consumption and cost reduction. In this paper, SS was recycled in large volumes in concrete as partial cementitious material and fine aggregate. The compressive strength and reaction mechanism of cementitious material with different SS powder contents including 20%, 25%, 30%, and 35% were presented.

The dataset presented here emanates from preliminary studies that compared the early-age compressive strengths of geopolymer mortars produced from construction and demolition wastes (CDW) commonly found in Qatar using different alkaline activators. Waste concrete, waste bricks and steel slag were used as aluminosilicate sources for the geopolymer mortars. Waste concrete was used as fine aggregate (75 µm to 4 mm), while solid or hollow red clay bricks were used together with steel slag as aluminosilicate powders.

Steel slag, abundantly available at a low cost and containing over 30 wt% silica, is an attractive precursor for producing high-surface-area mesoporous silica. By employing a two-stage dissolution-precipitation method using 1 M HCl and 1 M NaOH, we extracted pure SiO, CaO, MgO, . from blast furnace slag (BFS).

The utilization of steel slag as an alternative material in asphalt mixtures is considered the solution to the problem of the shortage of natural aggregates. However, asphalt mixtures with steel slag show susceptibility to damage caused by moisture, especially in powder form. Therefore, blast furnace slag powders were used to compound with steel slag powders as fillers to improve the moisture resistance of asphalt mixtures.
