Item Influence of Superplasticizers on Blended Cement and Their Effect on Flow Characteristics by Incorporating PGBS as Partial Replacement for Fine Aggregates(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021) Arpitha, D.; Sudarshan, V.J.; Thilak Kumar, Y.T.; C, C.Currently the upsurge practice of the mineral admixtures as an alternative for cement to cut down the carbonic gas emission, to reduce the cement cost, and to progress some technical recitals is truly the indispensable novelty advanced in construction industry. Mortars with different w/c require the use of appropriate and compatible chemical admixtures to achieve desirable consistency. The principal tactic delivered to contest in contradiction to this exertion is to choose the furthermost effective twosome cement–superplasticizer, facilitating to attain a determined water reduction, an enhanced flow, and an adequate rheology. Processed Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (PGBS) incorporated as partial replacement for Fine Aggregates (FA) along with different types of Superplasticizers (SP) for different dosages, which were chemically based on Lignosulfonate (LS), Sulphonated Naphtha Formaldehyde (SNF), and Polycarboxylate Ether (PCE), was used to check the behavior of flow characteristics in this work. The fusion of Portland pozzolana cement (PPC) along with partial replacement of fine aggregates has resulted to understand the better flow interaction between the cementitious materials and under different water–cement ratio (w/c). © 2021, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Item Study on Compatibility Issues and Flow Behavior of Copper Slag-Based Mortars(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021) Thilak Kumar, Y.T.; Arpitha, D.; Sudarshan, V.J.; C, C.; Puttaswamy, N.With the growing constructions industries, sand availability has become a headache for the builders and engineers. In this paper an attempt has been made to understand the flow characteristics of partially replaced copper slag (10, 20, 30, and 40%) in mortars with varied water binder ratio (0.35, 0.4, and 0.45) for different percentages of superplasticizers dosage (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, and 2.0). Thus, the test results drawn help to identify the optimum dosage of superplasticizer required for different percentage replacement of fine aggregates and water binder ratio and understand the flow behavior characteristics of mortars. © 2021, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
