Effect of granulated blast furnace slag aging on the hydration and properties of cement and cementitious binders

The influence of slag aging during storage in natural conditions, under water and in open air with varying relative humidity on its reactivity is investigated. It is shown that its changes as compared with a fresh sample are negligible.
