    • Effects of elevated temperatures on the thermal behavior and mechanical performance of fly ash geopolymer paste, mortar and lightweight concrete 

      Omar A., Abdulkareem; Mohd Mustafa Al Bakri, Abdullah; Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Jen. Dato' Prof. Dr.; Khairul Nizar, Ismail, Dr.; Saif, Ala’eddin A. (Elsevier, 2014-01)
      This paper reports a comparative study of the influence of elevated temperature on geopolymer paste, mortars and lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete (LWAGC) systems made by using fly ash (FA) as only source material. ...
    • Effects of fly ash addition on compressive strength and flexural strength of foamed cement composites 

      Roshasmawi, Abdul Wahab; Mazlee, Mohd Noor, Dr.; Shamsul, Baharin Jamaludin, Prof. Dr.; Khairul Nizar, Ismail, Dr. (Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
      In this study, the mixing of polystyrene (PS) beads and fly ash as a sand replacement material in foamed cement composites (FCC) has been investigated. Specifically, the mechanical properties such as compressive strength ...
    • Influence of activator composition on the properties of calcined kaolin geopolymeric powder 

      Liew, Yun Ming; Kamarudin, Hussin, Brig. Jen. Dato' Prof. Dr.; Mohd Mustafa Al-Bakri, Abdullah; Binhussain, M.; Luqman, Musa, Dr.; Khairul Nizar, Ismail, Dr.; Che Mohd Ruzaidi, Ghazali, Prof. Madya; Cheng Yong, Heah (Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)
      This paper studied the influence of activator composition on the properties of calcined kaolin geopolymeric powder. The alkaline activation of calcined kaolin was performed in mixture of waterglass liquid and NaOH solution ...
