Strength and microstructural properties of mechanically-activated kaolin geopolymers
(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 ...
The effect of curing time on the properties of fly ash-based geopolymer bricks
(Scientific.Net/Trans Tech Publications, 2012-12)
This paper reports the results of an experimental work conducted to investigate the effect of curing conditions on the properties of fly ash-based geopolymer bricks prepared by using fly ash as base material and combination ...
The influence of curing periods on the compressive strength of fly ash-based geopolymer at different aging times
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
The results of the current experimental investigation indicate the significant effect of the heating periods on the compressive strength of fly ash-based geopolymers prepared at different alkaline liquid content at both ...
Study on solids-to-liquid and alkaline activator ratios on kaolin-based geopolymers
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-10)
Kaolin and alkali activator were mixed with the solids-to-liquid ratios in range of 0.60-1.20 (Al 2O 3/Na 2O molar ratio of 0.63-1.27). Sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide ranged between 0.16 and 0.36 (SiO 2/Na 2O molar ...
Processing and characterization of calcined kaolin cement powder
(Elsevier Ltd, 2012-05)
Abstract
This paper aimed at investigating the possibility of calcined kaolin to produce cement powder that could be an alternative to Portland cement by applying geopolymerization process. Cement paste was firstly made ...
