The Strength Properties of Cement Matrix containing High-Volume Wasted Phosphogypsum with Binder Types

결합재의 종류에 따른 인산석고를 다량 함유한 경화체의 강도 특성

Wasted phosphogypsum is a by-product from the phosphoric acid process of manufacturing fertilizers. It consists mainly of $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ and contains some impurities. The purpose of this study is to utilize wasted phosphogypsum into an admixture for concrete products cured by steam This paper is to investigate the strength properties of cement composites containing high volume phosphogypsum. The cement composites were composed of OPC, phosphogypsum, fly-ash and granulated blast-furnace slag with activators. As a result, the strength of cement composites containing high volume wasted phosphogypsum were shown high level when granulated blast-furnace slag was mixed. Therefore, PG could be used as a steam curing admixture for concrete 2th production with reduction of OPC.
