Product Description

Ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) is a byproduct of iron and steel production processes. While producing iron, a molten blast furnace is rapidly cooled with water, resulting in the creation of a glassy and granular material. This material is then finely ground into a powder, resulting in ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS). It possesses cementitious properties when mixed with water, making it a valuable supplementary cementitious material in concrete production.

ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) finds massive applications in the construction industry, remarkably in the production of concrete. It is frequently used as a partial replacement in concrete mixtures, leading to improved workability, reduced heat evolution, and enriched long-term strength and durability.

Additionally, ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) is employed in specialized concrete applications such as high-performance concrete, mass concrete, and marine structures, owing to its ability to mitigate alkali-silica reactions and sulfate attacks, resulting in improved resistance to aggressive surroundings.
