Popis: In this study, refining slag containing high hydration active component C12A7 was added in GBFS−SS−DG−based clinker−free cementitious material. The optimum was determined by an orthogonal test and the influence of heat treatment was studied. The participation of refined slag makes the compressive strength of 3 days reached 27.4 MPa, 60.6% of that at 56 days, which overcomes the shortcoming of low initial strength of GBFS−SS−DG−based clinker−free cementitious material. Microscopic analysis showed that quantities of ettringite occurred in 3 days. During the hydration, C 3AH6 was formed by the hydration reaction of C3A and C12A7 and then reacted with the C S ‾ H2 to form ettringite which constituted the basic framework. Under the alkaline condition provided by steel slag, SiO4 tetrahedra and AlO4 tetrahedra were constantly dissociated from GBFS , then C–S–H gels and ettringite were further developed, which was corroborated by results of IR and XPS. In middle and late period, amounts of C–S–H gels wrapped AFt crystals and filled the pores, and finally formed a unified composite structure, which was responsible for the high strength of 43.0 MPa at 28 days.
