Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) /Microfine GGBS
GGBS-GGBS is a unique supplementary cementitious product confirming to IS 16714:2018. It is perfect for structural concrete construction. It can be used as partial replacement of OPC in concrete production at Ready Mix Concrete (RMC) batching plants and site batching plants. Since it contributes towards sustainable concrete construction, GGBS is regarded as a ‘green’ building material.
Some of the advantages of GGBS are longer life, resistant to chemical attack, less heat of hydration & reduced thermal crack, incomparable long-term strength and proportion flexibility.
Microfine GGBS-JSW Microfine is obtained from JSW Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) by quality controlled granulation and classification mechanism. JSW Microfine is a low calcium silicate based mineral additive which can be used in concrete for improving the packing density thereby enhancing the compressive and flexural strength along with durability.It conforms to IS: 16715:2018 & amendment 2019.
Some of the advantages of using Microfine GGBS are -It Improves Compressive,Flexural andTensile Strength.Resistance to chemical attacks and aggressive environmental conditions is increased.
