Abstract
Abstract FuturBeton is a high-performance concrete that offers exceptional strength and durability due to the incorporation of nano-activated ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). The addition of GGBS provides significant durability enhancements compared to Portland cement, although its slower reactivity in binder systems poses a challenge. To optimize its performance as an additive, activation of GGBS is essential. The application of advanced high-energy grinding technology, Simoloyer®, enables the reduction of GGBS particle size to well below one micrometer (∼500 nm) while achieving nanoscale activation through intensive structural modification.
