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 ...
Effect of fly ash/alkaline activator ratio and sodium silicate/NaoH ratio on fly ash geopolymer coating strength
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Fly ash geopolymer coating material potential used to protect surface used in exposure conditions. Ratio of fly ash/alkaline activator and Na₂SiO₃/NaOH play important parameter on determining the best flexural strength of ...
Application of clay - based geopolymer in brick production: A review
(Trans Tech Publications Inc., 2013)
This paper reviews and summarizes the current knowledge and application of clay as a geopolymer material in production of geopolymer brick. As we understand, the nature of source materials give a significant impact to the ...
Alkali activated blast-furnace slag cement: The opportunity to solve sustainable issues
(American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information, 2013)
This paper aimed at investigating the possibility of alkali activated blast-furnace
slag (BFS) to produce cement powder that could be alternative to ordinary Portland
cement. It was found that an alkali activated BFS ...
Comparison of original and sintered LUSI mud from East Java, Indonesia as raw material for making a geopolymer
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)
This paper presents the characterization of LUSI mud from East Java, Indonesia, as a potential raw material for making a geopolymer. Two types of LUSI mud were analyzed, i.e., original LUSI mud and LUSI mud that had been ...
Study on radioactivity components, water quality and microstructure characteristic of volcano ash as geopolymer artificial aggregate
(SYSCOM 18, 2013-06)
The assessments of radioactivity, water qualitytesting and microstructure characteristic of volcano ash have been examined. The measurement of the 226Ra, 232Th, 40K, and 238U were carried out using radioactive concentration ...
Malaysian Foxtail grass - A potential source of natural/agro fibre for polymer composite panel
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Foxtail grass, also known as 'rumput bulu' by the local people, is one of the fast growing grasses abundantly available all over Malaysia. A full grown Foxtail grass attains a height of about 0.5 - 1.5 meters. The fibres ...
Review on the various ash from palm oil waste as geopolymer material
(Advanced Study Center Co. Ltd., 2013)
The solid waste from palm oil mill industry has been increasing annually where it has been reported that the palm oil waste was produced 4 million tons/years in Malaysia only. Hence, the solution to overcome the problems ...
