Microstructural analysis of geopolymer and ordinary Portland cement mortar exposed to sulfuric acid
(Revista De Materiale Plastice, 2013-09)
The vulnerability of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete to acidic attack is a worrying subject regarding the future durability of this binder. On the other side of binder's technology, the new technology of cement ...
Alteration in the microstructure of fly ash geopolymer upon exposure to elevated temperatures
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
This paper represents the mechanical and microstructure changes in geopolymeric material synthesized by the alkali activation of locally source fly ash at high temperatures of 400, 600 and 800 °C. The high compressive ...
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 ...
Microstructure study on volcano ash geopolymer aggregate at different sintering temperature
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
Recent research shows that the by-product materials such as fly ash can be used as raw material in producing aggregates and lightweight aggregates. The usage of this material can improve the quality of the aggregates ...
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% ...
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 ...
The effect of curing temperature on physical and chemical properties of geopolymers
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
Fly ash-based geopolymers required heat to increase the geopolymerization process in order to obtain higher compressive strength. As such, geopolymer samples were prepared using different curing temperatures (room temperature, ...
Characterization of LUSI mud volcano as geopolymer raw material
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
The mud of mud volcano samples were collected from an eruption site named 'LUSI' (Lumpur "mud" -Sidoarjo), East Java, Indonesia for characterization. Analysis showed that, the major constituents of mud are SiO 2 and Al 2O ...
Optimization of NaOH Molarity, LUSI Mud/Alkaline Activator, and Na2SiO3/NaOH Ratio to Produce Lightweight Aggregate-Based Geopolymer
(MDPI AG, 2015-05-21)
This paper presents the mechanical function and characterization of an artificial lightweight geopolymer aggregate (ALGA) using LUSI (Sidoarjo mud) and alkaline activator as source materials. LUSI stands for LU-Lumpur and ...
