Description

PORTLAND CEMENT FREE ACTIVATION OF GROUND GRANULATED BLAST
FURNACE SLAG
FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new cement composition which is more environmentally friendly than traditional Portland cement, more specifically, the novel cement comprises a high proportion of ground granulated blast furnace slag.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Blast furnace slag is the non-metallic by-product of iron production, generally consisting of silicon, calcium, aluminum, magnesium and oxygen. When iron is manufactured using a blast furnace, two products collect in the hearth - molten iron and slag. The slag floats on top of the iron and is skimmed off to be fed to a granulator. In the granulator the molten slag is rapid quenched with water.
The resulting granules are essentially glassy, non-metallic silicates and alumino silicates of calcium.
The glass content of the slag generally determines its cementitious character or suitability for use in hydraulic cement¨the higher the glass content the greater the cementitious properties.
Significant quantities of this blast furnace by-product are produced annually.
Disposal of blast furnace slag had been problematic until subsidiary uses for the slag were developed. For instance, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) may be added to cement clinker and calcium sulfate and inter-ground to create a modified Portland slag cement.
Manufacturing Portland cement through a dry method is a very energy intensive process. After quarrying the principal raw materials such as limestone, clay, and other materials, the rock is crushed. This is done is multiple steps. The first step reduces the rock to a maximum size of about 6 inches. Subsequent crushing steps reduce the rocks to a size of about 3 inches or smaller. At that point the rocks are combined with other ingredients such as iron ore or fly ash and ground further and mixed and added to a cement kiln.
The cement kiln heats the mixture to a temperature ranging from about 2,700 to about 3000 degrees Fahrenheit. The finely ground raw material or slurry is led into the elevated end of the kiln. At the other end of the kiln are the flames produced by the burning of powdered coal, oil, alternative fuels, or other combustible material. The high temperature calcines the chemically combined water and carbon dioxide from the raw materials which comes out at the higher end of the kiln and forms new compounds such as tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate, tricalcium aluminate and tetracalcium aluminoferrite) which forms the clinker that comes out at the lower end of the kiln. This clinker is in the form of marble sized balls. Clinker coming out of the kiln is cooled, ground and 'nixed small amounts of gypsum and limestone.

WO 2015/082585 discloses a binder composition for improved mortars and coatings, comprising first standard mineral constituent and a second constituent based on pulverulent calcium hydroxide, wherein said second constituent based on pulverulent calcium hydroxide has a specific surface calculated according to the BET method which is lower than 12 m2/g. The description states that among the cements that can be selected ground blast furnace slag and fly ash can be used.
One of the issues with the addition of slag to Portland cement is that increasing the amount of slag addition increases the setting time of the final cement. The early strength gain of the cement considerably decreases thus making the cement unusable. Currently, the addition of slag to Portland cement has been limited to a maximum of 50% depending on the fineness and glass content of the slag. Consequently, there is still a need to increase the percentage of slag loading without compromising on the early and final strength of the final cement and, more advantageously, to remove altogether the presence of Portland cement in the cementitious binder composition.
Some of the problems of prior art cements include: slow setting and decreased early strength when slag percentage is increased; the use of high pH and harsh alkalis like sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate;
and the mandatory use or Portland cement and high amount of calcium sulfate.
The inventors have discovered that cement made according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention promotes the reaction between lime and phosphate and hence provides a more durable cement than previously used or known cements.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of producing blast furnace slag cement that does not involve any addition of Portland cement and hence requires very less energy to make and does not release green house. gases during its production.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided an activator composition for combining with hydraulically-active materials comprising ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGLIFS) and/or pulverised fuel ash (PFA) to form a cementitious binder, methods for using such activator compositions and methods of forming cementitious binders.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a cementitious binder composition comprising at least 80 % by weight of a hydraulically-active material comprising ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and/or fly ash having a surface area ranging between 2500-12000 cm2/g, preferably of approximately 4000 em2/g; at least 0.5 % by weight of lime; at least 0.5% of nano calcium carbonate having a particle size of 5-10 micron meter; at least 0.5%
by weight of alkali metal fluoride; at least 0.5% by weight of an alkali metal sulfate; optionally, 0.1%
by weight of a hydrocolloid as water retention agent; and at least 0.1% by weight of acid and/or alkali metal phosphate as part of cement composition for the hydraulically-active material. The cementitious binder composition according to an aspect of the present invention does not comprise any Portland cement and is, therefore, more environmentally friendly. The resulting cement does not involve clinkering.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a concrete, mortar, grout, screed or render formed by mixing the cementitious binder composition according to the present invention with aggregate particles, water and a superploticiser. The particles of slag must preferably be within the specified ranges or if too coarse. the particles will have fewer chemical reactions with other components of the binder and therefore lead to a cement with reduced strength.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
It is known in the prior art to combine (.36131'S, lime and other harsh alkalis like sodium hydroxide or sodium silicate to form a cementitious binder. In the prior art, a high proportion of lime has been used and a cement prepared using such a binder has low initial strength and a slow setting time. Previously phosphate has been used as retarder for slag cements containing a high amount of calcium sulfate to prevent the flash setting of the cements.
The inventors have unexpectedly and surprisingly found that in combining ground granulated blast furnace slag (GORES) with lime, nano alkali metal carbonate, a source of alkali metal fluoride, a source of alkali metal phosphate as accelerator and alkali metal sulfate one could obtain a cement having comparable characteristics with Portland cement.
The inventors have now determined that concretes with improved durability can be prepared using a cementitious binder comprising _a high proportion of GGI.31:S and/or ITA and a low proportion of combination of CaO, or lime, alkali metal phosphate, alkali metal fluoride, nano calcium carbonate, and alkali metal sulfate as described herein.

Preferably, alkali metal fluoride such as sodium fluoride is present in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 5%. Preferably, acid phosphate is present in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 5%. Preferably, alkali metal phosphate such as sodium hexa meta phosphate is present in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 10%.
Preferably, alkali metal sulfate such as sodium sulfate is present in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 10%. Preferably, hydrocolloids are present in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 0.5%.

By referring to examples 7 and 19, one notices that the addition of sodium sulphate has an impact in increasing the strength across all test points (I day, 3 days, 7 days and 28 days).
By comparing examples 4 and 5, one can establish the positive impact of the addition of nano calcium carbonate in the increase of the concrete strength across all test points.
Example 6 provides an indication that the addition of 0.1% of hydrocolloids allows to make a cement which does not require curing.
Examples 8 and 9 illustrate that the addition of potassium silicate alone or in the presence of a phosphate additive such as SHNIP decreases the strength of the cured composition.
Concrete made with pozzolona portland cement undergoing the same test have compression data as follows: I day: 8.1 Mpa; 3 days: 14.6 Mpa; 7 days: 21.1 Mpa; and 28 days: 31.6 Mpa.
