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 ...
Study on physical and chemical properties of fly ash from different area in Malaysia
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013-12)
Fly ash is residue from the combustion of coal which widely available in worldwide and lead to waste management proposal. Moreover, the use of fly ash is more environmental friendly and save cost compared to OPC. Fly ash ...
Mechanical performances of fly ash geopolymer bricks
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)
Geopolymer is a new class of three-dimensionally networked amorphous to semi-crystalline alumino-silicate materials, and first developed by Professor Davidovits in 1978. Geopolymers can be synthesized by mixing alumino-silicate ...
Properties of fresh palm oil fuel ash based geopolymer material
(American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information (AENSI), 2013-10)
In this paper, palm oil fuel ash (POFA) was used as the soul material to produce geopolymer binder. Sodium silicate mixed with sodium hydroxide was used as alkaline activator to activate the palm oil fuel ash. Activator ...
Lightweight fly ash-based geopolymer concrete
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The experiments of this study were preformed to study the synthesis process for lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete (LWAGC) using normal sand as a fine aggregate and expanded clay as lightweight aggregate. The LWAGC ...
Potential of upgrading domestic biomass into a higher energy density via torrefaction process
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Torrefaction is a thermal treatment step in a relatively low temperature range of 240-300°C, which aims to produce a higher energy biomass in terms of low heating value (LHV) and light weight properties. Biomass in wood ...
Corrosion performance of reinforcement bar in geopolymer concrete compare with its performance in ordinary portland cement concrete: A short review
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Since decades ago, corrosion is the crucial factors for million dollars loss in construction industry. Corrosion of reinforcement bar in ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete is mainly due to chloride and acid attack and ...
Kaolin-based geopolymers with various NaOH concentrations
(Springer Verlag, 2013-03)
Kaolin geopolymers were produced by the alkali-activation of kaolin with an activator solution (a mixture of NaOH and sodium silicate solutions). The NaOH solution was prepared at a concentration of 6-14 mol/L and was mixed ...
Influence of oxide molar ratios on kaolin geopolymers
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-12)
Oxide molar ratios are the main key parameter determining the performance of a kaolin geopolymers. The kaolin composition and various mixture proportions will lead to different oxide molar ratios in geopolymer system. In ...
