Abstract

In this study, to evaluate the setting time, compressive strength and drying shrinkage of ordinary Portland cement and Portland blast-furnace slag cement mortar with 0, 10, 20, 30 wt.% alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate. As a results, as the replacement ratio of alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate increased, the initial setting time of ordinary Portland cement and Portland blast-furnace slag cement mortar was faster. In addition, the compressive strength decreased with increasing replacement ratio of alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate in both ordinary Portland cement mortar and Portland blast-furnace slag cement mortar. The strength development of Portland blast-furnace slag cement mortar with alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate was effective than that of ordinary Portland cement mortar. On the other hand, in the case of the mortar with alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate, it was confirmed that shrinkage deformation was reduced at the early age by growth pressure of needle-shaped ettringite crystals produced by incorporation of alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate. However, the effect of inhibiting shrinkage deformation of mortar with alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate was not significant as the age passed. Therefore, it is considered that the alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate is useful as a construction material.

${\alpha}$형 반수석고는 생산방법이 복잡하고, 대량 연속 생산이 곤란하며, 재료 단가가 높기 때문에 건설재료로써 활용범위가 크지 않았으나, 최근 화력발전소의 배연탈황석고를 활용하여 경제적으로 ${\alpha}$형 반수석고를 제조하는 기술이 실용화되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 응결 시작 시간이 빠르고 재령 초기 팽창변형이 발생하는 ${\alpha}$형 반수석고의 특징에 주목하여, ${\alpha}$형 반수석고를 10, 20, 30 wt.% 치환한 보통포틀랜드시멘트 및 고로슬래그시멘트 모르타르를 제조한 후 응결 및 압축강도 특성, 건조수축을 검토하였다. 실험 결과, ${\alpha}$형 반수석고의 치환율이 증가할수록 보통포틀랜드시멘트 모르타르 및 고로슬래그시멘트 모르타르의 초결시간이 빨라지는 경향을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 보통포틀랜드시멘트 모르타르와 고로슬래그시멘트 모르타르 모두 ${\alpha}$형 반수석고의 치환율이 증가할수록 압축강도가 저하되는 경향을 보였으며, 보통포틀랜드 시멘트보다 고로슬래그시멘트에서 ${\alpha}$형 반수석고의 압축강도 발현이 유리한 것으로 나타났다. 한편, ${\alpha}$형 반수석고를 치환한 모르타르의 경우 ${\alpha}$형 반수석고의 혼입에 의해 생성된 에트링가이트 침상결정의 성장압에 의해 초기재령에서 수축변형이 저감되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 초기 재령에서 수축변형의 억제 효과는 분명하지만, 재령이 지남에 따라 ${\alpha}$형 반수석고를 치환하지 않은 조건과 변형의 차이는 다시 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 따라서 ${\alpha}$형 반수석고를 모르타르에 적용할 경우 강도는 다소 저하하지만, 응결 촉진 및 수축변형 억제에 큰 효과가 있기 때문에 건설재료로써 활용 가치가 높을 것으로 판단된다.
