State Powder Granulated Slag, Grade ASTM C618, Moisture 0

Ground, Granulated blast, Furnace slag ggbs or ggbfs is sourced from quenching molten iron slag a by, Product of iron and steel, Making from an industrial melting furnace to generate in water, A glassy or steam, Granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder. Ggbs serves the purpose of make durable concrete structures alongside ordinary portland cement and/or other pozzolanic materials. Ggbs has been commonly utilized in europe, And increasingly in the united states and in asia particularly in japan and singapore for its superiority in concrete durability, Extending the lifespan of buildings from fifty years to a hundred years. Two major uses of ggbs are during the manufacturing process of quality, Improved slag cement, Namely portland blastfurnace cement pbfc and high, Slag blast, Furnace cement hsbfc, With ggbs content ranging typically from 30 to 70%, And presented asulation of ready, Mixed or site, Batched durable concrete. Concrete made with ggbs cement sets more slowly than concrete made with ordinary portland cement, Contingent upon the level of ggbs in the but also, Cementitious material continues to gain strength across a more prolonged period period in production conditions. This creates lower heat of hydration and lower and makes, Temperature rises avoiding cold but may, Joints easier also affect construction schedules where quick setting is required. Use of ggbs significantly reduces the likelihood of exposure damages caused by alkali, Silica reaction asr, Provides higher protection against chloride corrosion ingress, Reducing the risk of reinforcement corrosion, And provides higher resistance to attacks by sulfate as well as various substances
