Influence of activator composition on the properties of calcined kaolin geopolymeric powder
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
This paper studied the influence of activator composition on the properties of calcined kaolin geopolymeric powder. The alkaline activation of calcined kaolin was performed in mixture of waterglass liquid and NaOH solution ...
FTIR and XRD characterization of kaolin geopolymer based on solids-to-liquid and alkaline activator ratios
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
This paper covers the results of X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) in assessing the phase identification and functional group of kaolin geopolymer based on the different ...
Effect of curing regimes on metakaolin geopolymer pastes produced from geopolymer powder
(Scientific.Net/Trans Tech Publications, 2012-12)
The properties of metakaolin geopolymer paste are affected by the alkali concentration, the initial raw materials, solidification process, and amount of mixing water as well as the curing conditions. This study aimed to ...
The flexural and impact properties of kenaf-polypropylene composites filled with montmorillonite filler
(Taylor and Francis Group, LLC., 2012-01)
Kenaf- Polypropylene composites filled with montmorillonite (MMT) filler were produced. The incorporation of MMT had improved the flexural and impact properties. Addition of compatibilizer, had improved the flexural and ...
Strength and microstructural properties of mechanically-activated kaolin geopolymers
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012-12)
Kaolin geopolymers exhibit low strength properties due to its plate-like nature which contribute to smaller surface area for geopolymerization reactions. Layered kaolin structure only allows very little, if any, substitution ...
Effect of alkali concentration on mechanical properties of kaolin geopolymers
(Procema SA, 2012)
Alkali concentration is the most significant factor in geopolymerization process that must be taken into consideration during the synthesis of kaolin geopolymers. The kaolin geopolymers were prepared by mixing kaolin and ...
Study on solids-to-liquid and alkaline activator ratios on kaolin-based geopolymers
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-10)
Kaolin and alkali activator were mixed with the solids-to-liquid ratios in range of 0.60-1.20 (Al 2O 3/Na 2O molar ratio of 0.63-1.27). Sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide ranged between 0.16 and 0.36 (SiO 2/Na 2O molar ...
Effect of mechanical activation on kaolin-based geopolymers
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Raw materials kaolin was subjected to mechanical modification; the effect of the mechanical activation of kaolin on the compressive strength and morphological properties of the geopolymers has been studied. Mechanical ...
Curing Behavior on kaolin-based geopolymers
(Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland., 2012)
This paper aims at investigating the influence of curing process on kaolin-based geopolymers. Kaolin-based geopolymers were prepared by the alkali-activation of kaolin with alkali activating solution (mixture of NaOH and ...
Optimization of solids-to-liquid and alkali activator ratios of calcined kaolin geopolymeric powder
(Elsevier Ltd, 2012-12)
This paper investigates the effect of S/L and alkali activator ratios on the synthesis of geopolymeric powder. Geopolymeric powder was synthesized by applying geopolymerization process. By adopting the concept of "just ...
