Description |
The effect of copper slag leaching was evaluated using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) immersed
in three aqueous media such as tap water, sea water, and synthetic/artificial rain water. The mechanical
and corrosion resistance properties of copper slag admixed concrete was evaluated using compression
test and various electrochemical tests, respectively. Sand was totally replaced with copper slag in making
the concrete specimens. From the investigations it is observed that the copper slag leaching was found to
be very less even after 180 days of exposure in aqueous media. Compressive strength revealed that the
addition of copper slag increased the compressive strength of the concrete. Rapid Chloride Penetration
Test (RCPT) and other electrochemical tests indicated that copper slag admixed mortar performed equal
to the sand mortar in sea water environments.
