1 Introduction
Granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) is an industrial byproduct of the iron production and a valuable mineral raw material. It is used in the production of different building materials. A history of more than 150 years of research and successful application has shown the great potential of using GBFS in the production of mineral binders. The chemical and mineralogical composition and the structure of the slag makes it possible to use GBFS as a main and supplementary component of various cements. Of the 27 “common cements” listed in the European standard EN 197-1:2000, nine...
