4. Conclusions
- The substitution with GP in MK/RHA decreases the water demand (W/B) to reach the normal consistency of the paste. The W/B is 33% and 40% for the paste containing 20% GP in the substitution of MK and RHA, respectively. This is lower compared with the W/B of 38.5% and 60%, respectively, for the paste containing only 30% MK and RHA. This reduction in water demand would therefore improve the workability. Nevertheless, GP increases the setting time of the paste essentially due to its dilution effect, which would be beneficial for work in hot regions.
- The substitution with GP in MK/RHA did not sufficiently develop the compressive strength at an early age, displaying values lower than that of the controls. However, the strength relatively improved over time and significantly reduced the deficiency at 90 days.
- The substitution with GP in MK/RHA improved some of the durability indicators of mortars. It reduced the porosity and sorptivity of various mortars, with a more significant effect observed for RHA than MK. The mass loss after exposure to acid attack was also reduced with respect to cement, with a more significant effect observed with MK than RHA, up to 15% GP.
