Fly ash geopolymer bricks- a review
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
Fly Ash geopolymer bricks is one of the alkali activated material. Bricks are the only man-made building materials that testify to their use since the early human civilization. Since fly ash is being accumulated as waste ...
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 ...
Fly ash porous material using geopolymerization process for high temperature exposure
(MDPI AG (Basel, Switzerland), 2012-04)
This paper presents the results of a study on the effect of temperature on geopolymers manufactured using pozzolanic materials (fly ash). In this paper, we report on our investigation of the performance of porous geopolymers ...
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 ...
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 ...
Review on the utilization of palm ash for geopolymer composite
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
The waste materials from agro industry can be use as pozzolanic material in concrete production. One of the agro waste materials that have possibility is palm ash because it has been used up to 60% for cement replacement. ...
Optimization of alkaline activator / fly ash ratio on the compressive strength of manufacturing fly ash-based geopolymer
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Fly ash and a mixture of alkaline activators namely sodium silicate (Waterglass) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution were used for preparing geopolymer. The aim of this research is to determine the optimum value of the ...
Microstructure study on optimization of high strength fly ash based geopolymer
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
The compressive strength and microstructural characteristics of fly ash based geopolymer with alkaline activator solution were investigated. The sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate were mixed together to form an alkaline ...
Characterization of LUSI mud volcano as geopolymer raw material: A review
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
This paper summarizes the current knowledge about the potential of LUSI mud volcano, East Java, Indonesia as a raw material in geopolymer. Previous experimental study shows that the LUSI mud has a good performance when 5% ...
Reviews on the properties of aggregates made with or without geopolymerisation method
(Scientific.Net/Trans Tech Publications, 2012-12)
Aggregates are popular for use in concrete and lightweight concrete applications. Recent research shows that the by-product materials such as fly ash can be used as raw material in producing aggregates and lightweight ...
