Effect of In-Situ Mechanochemical Activation on the Macroscopic Properties and Microstructure of Graphite Tailings-Based Autoclaved Aerated Concrete
This study demonstrates that an alkali-mechanical synergistic, in-situ mechanochemical activation strategy, specifically co-grinding graphite tailings with NaOH for 30 minutes, significantly enhances their hydrothermal reactivity to produce autoclaved aerated concrete with optimal compressive strength and density that meet GB/T 11968–2020 standards by promoting tobermorite formation and refining the microstructure.
