Effect of Water-Binder Ratio on Early Reaction Kinetics of Alkali-Activated Slag
To investigate the effect of water-binder ratio on the early reaction kinetics of alkali-activated slag,1H low-field nuclear magnetic resonance was used to measure the transverse relaxation time of the slag slurry in the first 3 d of alkali-activation and the relative content changes of water in different states.29Si magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance,isothermal calorimetry,thermogravimetric analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to reveal the reaction mechanism of slag alkali-activated at the early stage.The results show that the transverse relaxation time of slag slurry under different water-binder ratio conditions decreases gradually with the alkali-activated reaction,and the movable water is gradually transformed to immovable.After 3 d of alkaline-activation,the high degree polymerization of alkaline-activated products increases with the increase in water-binder ratio.[AlO4]-tetrahedra increase the degree of polymerization and linkage of[SiO4]4-tetrahedra.
