Enhancing the performance and durability of eco-friendly mortars: The role of calcium chloride in GGBS and glass powder-based mixtures

The use of calcium chloride (CaCl₂) in slag-based cementitious materials has been well documented over the past decades, particularly for enhancing the early-age strength of mixes. However, the effect of this chemical additive in mortars incorporating mineral additions such as ground granulated blas...
