Self-Fluxing Mechanism in Geopolymerization for Low-Sintering Temperature of Ceramic
(MDPI AG, 2021-03-10)
Kaolin, theoretically known as having low reactivity during geopolymerization, was used as a source of aluminosilicate materials in this study. Due to this concern, it is challenging to directly produce kaolin geopolymers ...
The effects of various concentrations of NaOH on the inter-particle gelation of a fly ash geopolymer aggregate
(MDPI AG, 2021-02)
Aggregates can be categorized into natural and artificial aggregates. Preserving natural resources is crucial to ensuring the constant supply of natural aggregates. In order to preserve these natural resources, the production ...
Effect of aluminium powder on kaolin-based geopolymer characteristic and removal of Cu²⁺
(MDPI AG, 2021-02)
This current work focuses on the synthesis of geopolymer-based adsorbent which uses kaolin as a source material, mixed with alkali solution consisting of 10 M NaOH and Na₂SiO₃ as well as aluminium powder as a foaming agent. ...
Characterisation at the bonding zone between fly ash based geopolymer repair materials (GRM) and ordinary portland cement concrete (OPCC)
(MDPI AG, 2020-12)
In recent years, research and development of geopolymers has gained significant interest in the fields of repairs and restoration. This paper investigates the application of a geopolymer as a repair material by implementation ...
Evaluation of the effect of silica fume on amorphous fly ash geopolymers exposed to elevated temperature
(MDPI AG, 2021-01)
The properties of amorphous geopolymer with silica fume addition after heat treatment was rarely reported in the geopolymer field. Geopolymer was prepared by mixing fly ash and alkali activator. The silica fume was added ...
