Compressive strength and thermal conductivity of metakaolin geopolymers with anisotropic insulations
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020-02)This research investigated the properties of thermally insulating geopolymer prepared using waste filler (fibreboard and rubber) to act as anisotropic pore/insulation. The geopolymer matrix was synthesised using metakaolin ... -
Performance of geopolymer concrete when exposed to marine environment
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2019-07)Over the decades, concrete is widely known as the most resourceful construction material as it is suitable for many building applications. However, despite its ability to last hundreds of years in many applications, it has ... -
Geopolymers and their uses: review
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2018-06)Outlining the past-present history of the study of alumino-silicate materials, it is well known that geopolymers are inorganic polymers obtained from chemical reaction, also known as geopolymerisation, between an alkaline ... -
Study on the geopolymer concrete properties reinforced with hooked steel fiber
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017-06)In this research, Class F fly ash and a mixture of alkaline activators and different amount of hooked steel fiber were used for preparing geopolymer concrete. In order to analyses the effect of hooked steel fiber on the ... -
Bond strength mechanism of fly ash based geopolymer mortars: a review
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017-11)Geopolymer possess many excellent properties such as high compressive and bond strength, long term durability, better acid resistance and also known as a "Sustainable Material" due to its low carbon emission and low energy ... -
Tool wear and surface evaluation in drilling fly ash geopolymer using HSS, HSS-Co, and HSS-TiN cutting tools
(MDPI AG, 2021-03-26)This paper reports on the potential use of geopolymer in the drilling process, with respect to tool wear and surface roughness. The objectives of this research are to analyze the tool life of three different economy-grade ... -
Review on potential of Geopolymer for concrete repair and rehabilitation
(EDP Sciences, 2016)Cracking, spalling, surface deterioration, seepage and other concrete damage of the existing infrastructure have raised concern among residents, local authorities and developers. Dealing with concrete infrastructure ... -
Application of clay - based geopolymer in brick production: A review
(Trans Tech Publications Inc., 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 ... -
Microstructure studies on different types of Geopolymer materials
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)Geopolymer is a new binding material produced to substitute the ordinary Portland cement (OPC) function as a binder in concrete. As we know, different types of geopolymer will have different properties. In this research, ... -
