    • Comparative characterization of Clinker’s microstructure at different temperature zone during cement production 

      Mohd Sobri, Idris; Khairul Nizar, Ismail; Shamsul Baharin, Jamaludin; Che Mohd Ruzaidi, Ghazali; Kamarudin, Hussin (Science Publications, 2007)
      Temperature is an important parameter for transformation of minerals in clinker during cement productions. It influences the formation of alite from belite during calcinations and clinkering processes. The result of ...

    • Effect of alkali concentration on mechanical properties of kaolin geopolymers 

      Heah, Cheng Yong; Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Gen. Dato' Prof. Dr.; Mohd Mustafa Al Bakri, Abdullah; Mohammed, Husain; Luqman, Musa; Khairul Nizar, Ismail; Liew, Yun Ming (Foundation for Materials Science and Engineering, 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 ...

    • The fabrication of artificial marble from dolomite (Batu Reput) 

      Kamarudin, Hussin; Shamsul Baharin, Jamaludin; Che Mohd Ruzaidi, Ghazali; Mohd Sobri, Idris; Mohd Nazry, Salleh; Mohabattul Zaman, S NS Bukhari; Khairul Nizar, Ismail (The Mineral, Metals & Materials Society (TMS), 2006-01)
      Perlis is one of the major producers of "Batu Reput" in Malaysia and majority of the deposits contain of high-purity calcium and magnesium carbonate. The composition of Batu Reput is similar with the ordinary dolomite. ...

    • Strength and microstructural properties of mechanically-activated kaolin geopolymers 

      Cheng, Yong Heah; Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Jen. Dato' Prof. Dr.; Mohd Mustafa Al Bakri, Abdullah; Mohammed, Bnhussain; Luqman, Musa; Khairul Nizar, Ismail; Che Mohd Ruzaidi, Ghazali, Prof. Madya; Liew, Yun Ming (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 ...
