Abstract

The article discusses approaches to the formation of compositions of alkali-activated decorative Portland slag cements containing Portland cement type CEM1 5...45% with high performance and decorative properties. The optimization of the compositions of decorative alkali-activated Portland slag cements was carried out using statistical methods for designing experiments. Finely dispersed TiO2 and CaCO3 additives with a whiteness of 90% were used as bleaching components. The alkaline component is sodium metasilicate in the form of a non-hygroscopic powder. The research carried out made it possible to obtain decorative Portland slag cements with a whiteness of 45...77%, which allows them to be used to produce colored cements with a wide range of colors from white to black. It has been established that alkali-active decorative Portland slag cements have an activity of 37...59 MPa at the age of 28 days. All compositions have good hardening dynamics and, based on the strength at the age of 2 days - 22...36.6 MPa, they can be classified as fast-hardening. Based on them, it is possible to produce dry construction mixtures. All mortar compositions based on alkali-active decorative Portland slag cements demonstrate fairly high frost resistance - F200. This allows them to be used for the manufacture of products and solutions both for indoor use and when exposed to atmospheric influences without loss of design characteristics and decorative appeal. The inherent shrinkage strains of decorative alkali-activated Portland slag cements are 0.51...0.61 mm/m, which eliminates cracking and premature destruction of products. The use of the CaCO3 additive is especially effective for controlling the shrinkage deformations. Thus, the CaCO3 additive performs the functions of not only a decorative component, but also a structure-forming component. Concrete and mortar mixtures can be used to produce decorative products using the traditional method, extrusion, 3D printing on construction printers, etc. And not too long setting times and a rapid increase in strength make it possible to produce products without thermal treatment or with minimal consumption of thermal energy.
