Abstract: Coal combustion products present industrially interesting source of aluminosilicate materials. Based on previous experience, a ternary binder is proposed, consisting of circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) fly ash, conventional fly ash and Ca(OH)2 activator. The binder yields reasonable compressive strength of 32 MPa after 28 days of standard sealed curing and can be used for soil stabilization or concrete production.
Volumetric evolution of crystalline and amorphous phases during hydration were quantified using XRD analysis, differential thermal gravimetry, porosimetry and electron microscopy. A micromechanical model is applied to interpret the evolution of compressive strength due to the growing proportions of C-S-H and ettringite in the system. Long-term
monitoring of the binder showed excellent volume stability and no detrimental expansion due to late ettringite formation.
