摘要
This study investigated microstructural changes in alkali-activated slag (AAS) mortars after carbonation using XRD, FTIR, DTG, H-1 NMR and SEM examinations. The results showed that decalcification of C-S-H was the main reaction in carbonation of AAS. The C-S-H with a low Ca/Si was more vulnerable to decalcification in AAS samples activated by waterglass. Besides, AAS mortars demonstrated a lower CaCO3 formation compared to Portland cement mortars. Calcite and vaterite were the major CaCO3 polymorphs produced by carbonation of AAS precipitated mainly in gel pores and spaces in C-S-H interlayers. Meanwhile, the carbonation also caused a certain volume of contraction in AAS mortars.
