A new kind of cementitious material with high properties,alkali\|activated red bauxite mud and slag cementitious material (AARMS),is developed,in which the blend of red bauxite mud and slag is activated with water glass.The influences of different factors including red bauxite,water glass and Na\-3PO\-4 on the hydration of this cementitious material is detailly studied.An optimum formula of AARMS is obtained through orthogonal experiments.Its hydrated products are identified and variation of these hydrated products are studied with XRD. \[
