Kaolin Geopolymer as precursor to ceramic formation
(EDP Sciences, 2016)
This paper introduced the potential application of kaolin geopolymer as ceramic precursor. This is one of the alternatives to produce high strength ceramic at a slightly lower temperature. Upon sintering the conversion of ...
Effect of sodium hydroxide molarity on physical, mechanical and thermal conductivity of metakaolin geopolymers
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2018-03)
In the present work, the effect of different sodium hydroxide (NaOH) molarity (6M, 8M, 10M, 12M and 14M) on the physical, mechanical and thermal conductivity of metakaolin geopolymers (MkGPs) was investigated. Geopolymers ...
Durability of metakaolin geopolymers with various sodium silicate/sodium hydroxide ratios against seawater exposure
(AIP Publishing, 2017-09)
This work presents an investigation of the performance of metakaolin geopolymers exposed to the continuous
immersion of seawater. The geopolymers were prepared from metakaolin by activating with a mixture of sodium ...
Compressive strength and thermal conductivity of metakaolin geopolymers with anisotropic insulations
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020-02)
This research investigated the properties of thermally insulating geopolymer prepared using waste filler (fibreboard and rubber) to act as anisotropic pore/insulation. The geopolymer matrix was synthesised using metakaolin ...
