GGBS
Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) is a byproduct of iron production in blast furnaces and has chemical properties that make it suitable for use as a supplementary cementitious material. The chemical composition of GGBS typically includes significant proportions of silica (SiO2), alumina (Al2O3), and calcium oxide (CaO), along with smaller amounts of magnesium oxide (MgO), sulfur trioxide (SO3), and other elements. GGBS also contains compounds such as calcium aluminate silicates and calcium sulfide.
The specific chemical properties of GGBS can vary depending on factors such as the source of the raw materials, the manufacturing process, and post-processing treatments. However, its chemical composition generally contributes to its pozzolanic and hydraulic properties, which improve the durability, strength, and workability of concrete when used as a partial replacement for Portland cement.
