Application of clay - based geopolymer in brick production: A review
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
This paper reviews and summarizes the current knowledge and application of clay as a geopolymer material in production of geopolymer brick. As we understand, the nature of source materials give a significant impact to the ...
General properties of kaolin geopolymers
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)
This paper reported the properties of kaolin geopolymers in term of the bulk density, compressive strength, qualitative observation and SEM analysis of the kaolin geopolymers. Kaolin geopolymers were synthesized through ...
Nano geopolymer for sustainable concrete using fly ash synthesized by high energy ball milling
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
This paper presents the development of a nano geopolymer for sustainable concrete using fly ash synthesized by high-energy ball milling. In this paper, we report on our investigation of the effects of grinding on the binder ...
Sulfuric acid attack on ordinary Portland cement and geopolymer material
(Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), 2013-09)
The resistance of ordinary Portland cement binder towards acid had been widely discussed by researchers. The deterioration effect of this binder may cost high repair expense and rehabilitation. Geopolymer material is a new ...
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 ...
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 ...
Study on properties and morphology of kaolin based geopolymer coating on clay substrates
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013-12)
The application of geopolymer as a coating was not widely explored by other researchers and therefore the study of kaolin based geopolymer coating applied on different types of clay substrate (unsintered and sintered) was ...
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 ...
Study on the properties of oil palm trunk fiber (OPTF) in cement composite
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Properties of oil palm trunk fiber reinforced cement composite were investigated in this study. Oil palm trunk fiber was used to improve the properties of cement composite. It was found that increasing in oil palm trunk ...
Biodegradability analysis of KBF reinforced poly (lactic acid) biocomposites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) and kenaf bast fiber (KBF) were melt-blended using brabender into films in the PLA/KBF ratios of 100/0, 90/10, 70/30 and 50/50 for natural soil burial test. This formulation was used to study the ...
