Manufacturing of fire resistance geopolymer: a review
(EDP Sciences, 2016)
Protection against fire using inorganic polymer is a new application of engineering technology. Even though, there are varieties of fire-protection materials, there is always a need for the development of new materials ...
Synthesis of sodium silicate from rice husk ash as an activator to produce epoxy-geopolymer cement
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2021-03)
Rice husk ash (RHA), a byproduct of the rice industry, is the primary source of amorphous silica for producing sodium silicate solutions to replace standard commercial sodium silicate in geopolymer mixture design. The ...
Phase Transformation of Kaolin-Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag from Geopolymerization to Sintering Process
(MDPI AG, 2021-02)
The main objective of this research was to investigate the influence of curing temperature on the phase transformation, mechanical properties, and microstructure of the as-cured and sintered kaolin-ground granulated blast ...
Properties of a New Insulation Material Glass Bubble in Geopolymer Concrete
(MDPI AG, 2021-02)
This paper details analytical research results into a novel geopolymer concrete embedded with glass bubble as its thermal insulating material, fly ash as its precursor material, and a combination of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) ...
Optimizing of the cementitious composite matrix by addition of steel wool fibers (chopped) based on physical and mechanical analysis
(MDPI AG, 2021-02)
The demand for durable, resistant, and high-strength structural material has led to the use of fibers as reinforcing elements. This paper presents an investigation into the inclusion of chopped steel wool fibers (CSWFs) ...
Correlation of the processing parameters in the formation of granulated ground blast furnace slag geopolymer
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017-06)
Geopolymers are inorganic materials with huge potential applications including building material, fire resistant materials, and agricultural construction materials. Various parameters influenced the final properties of ...
