Granulated Blast Furnace Slag or GBFS is formed when Blast Furnace Slag or BFS is successively at a fast rate quenched from the furnace rather than left for cooling. It has a density of about 60% to 70% that of natural sand. This material has a much increased resistance to sulfate attack.
This eventually leads to better performance in countering acids of any type. In GBFS, no type of reaction related to alkali and silica occurs. Also the material provides a huge saving in connection to carbon dioxide emission which is an extra boon. What constitutes GBFS are its properties that consist of durability, appearance, higher ultimate strength than concrete which is made up of Portland cement and high sustainability level of the product made out of this material.
I have in offer granulated blast furnace slag
Description: Granulated blast turnace slags are byproducts or the manuracture or iron by thermochemical reduction in the blast turnace. Blast turnace slag is formed in a continuous process by the fusion or limestone land/or dolomite and other fluxes with the residues of the carbon source and non-metallic components of the iron bearing materials (e.g. iron ore, iron sinter). Blast furnace slag is generated at temperature above 1500�°C. The granulated blast furnace slags are water-cooled which give hydraulic properties related to vitrification. The efficie of the granulated slag depends on the temperature during cooling. The substance is prominently glassy
Granulated blast furnace slag or gbfs is the residue of combustion in the furnace of the steel refining process. It is obtained by quenching molten iron slag from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy, granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder. Ggbfs or ground granulated blast furnace slag is formed when gbfs is further processed or ground using conventional cement clinker grinding technology.
Uses and benefits of GBFS/GGBFS uses :
- GGBFS or GBFS is the most used raw material in cement industry to make slag cement.
- Lightweight fill
- Raw material for the manufacture of glass
- GBFS can be used as a substitute for sand in building materials
- GGBFS can be used as a replacement for portland cement

Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag(GGBS or GGBFS) is obtained by quenching molten iron slag (a by-product of iron and steel-making) from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy, granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder.
