Mechanical performances of fly ash geopolymer bricks
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)
Geopolymer is a new class of three-dimensionally networked amorphous to semi-crystalline alumino-silicate materials, and first developed by Professor Davidovits in 1978. Geopolymers can be synthesized by mixing alumino-silicate ...
Lightweight fly ash-based geopolymer concrete
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The experiments of this study were preformed to study the synthesis process for lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete (LWAGC) using normal sand as a fine aggregate and expanded clay as lightweight aggregate. The LWAGC ...
Mechanical and microstructural evaluations of lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete before and after exposed to elevated temperatures
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2013)
This paper presents the mechanical and microstructural characteristics of a lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete (LWAGC) synthesized by the alkali-activation of a fly ash source (FA) before and after being exposed to ...
Optimization of alkaline activator / fly ash ratio on the compressive strength of manufacturing fly ash-based geopolymer
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Fly ash and a mixture of alkaline activators namely sodium silicate (Waterglass) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution were used for preparing geopolymer. The aim of this research is to determine the optimum value of the ...
Compressive strength of fly ash based geopolymer / glass fiber composite via filament winding
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
In general, filament winding technique is used to fabricate the composite pipes using continuous fiber and matrix resin. In this study, fly ash based geopolymer resin composites reinforced by continuous glass fiber were ...
Fire resistance evaluation of lightweight geopolymer concrete system exposed to elevated temperatures of 100-800 °C
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This paper reports the fire resistance property of a lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete (LWAGC) material synthesized by the alkali-activation of locally source fly ash (FA) after exposed to elevated temperatures ...
Compressive strength and morphology of fly ash based geopolymer as artificial aggregate with different curing temperature
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This paper presented the compressive strength of geopolymer paste with different NaOH concentration and morphology analysis for sintered artificial aggregate. This artificial aggregate was produce based on mix design with ...
Microstructure study on optimization of high strength fly ash based geopolymer
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
The compressive strength and microstructural characteristics of fly ash based geopolymer with alkaline activator solution were investigated. The sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate were mixed together to form an alkaline ...
Comparison of geopolymer fly ash and ordinary Portland cement to the strength of concrete
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-12)
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of various fly ash: aggregate ratios by using fly ash (FA) based geopolymer compared to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) on the compressive strength of concrete. The different ...
Microstructure studies on the effect of the alkaline activators of fly ash-based geopolymer at elevated heat treatment temperature
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Fly ash-based geopolymers are new binding materials produced to replace the ordinary Portland cement (OPC) used in concrete. In this research, the effect of alkaline activators on the compressive strength and the microstructure ...
