Cement matrix samples were prepared using mechanical and chemical activation of two types of granulated blast-furnace slag with a fly ash admixture. We studied the chemical, phase, and granulometric composition; specific surface area; morphology; and strength of such slags, as well as the effect of the alkali introduction method on compressive strength.
