Effect of palm slag filler size on the mechanical and wear properties of brake pad composites
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)
Particle size of filler and other material that involved in brake pad composites are expected to be able to strongly influence the wear properties and performance. Palm slag as a filler in brake pad was investigated in ...
Reviews on the Geopolymer materials for coating application
(Scientific.Net, 2012-12)
The application of geopolymer has been expand in many areas where before this it only used for the production of cement and concrete. One of the new applications of geopolymer is for coating. Metakaolin, fly ash and ...
Microstructure studies on the effect of the alkaline activators of fly ash-based geopolymer at elevated heat treatment temperature
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Fly ash-based geopolymers are new binding materials produced to replace the ordinary Portland cement (OPC) used in concrete. In this research, the effect of alkaline activators on the compressive strength and the microstructure ...
Study on radioactivity components, water quality and microstructure characteristic of volcano ash as geopolymer artificial aggregate
(SYSCOM 18, 2013-06)
The assessments of radioactivity, water qualitytesting and microstructure characteristic of volcano ash have been examined. The measurement of the 226Ra, 232Th, 40K, and 238U were carried out using radioactive concentration ...
Feasibility of producing wood fibre-reinforced geopolymer composites (WFRGC)
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Wood fibres have long been known as a fibre reinforcement for concrete. Due to its availability and low production cost, this natural fibre has been used in less developed country where conventional construction materials ...
Correlation between Na 2SiO 3/NaOH ratio and fly ash/alkaline activator ratio to the strength of geopolymer
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Geopolymer requires an alkaline activator to induce it pozzolanic property and to accelerate the geopolymerisation process. The geopolymerisation process occurs due to the mixing of fly ash, sodium silicate and sodium ...
Malaysian Foxtail grass - A potential source of natural/agro fibre for polymer composite panel
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Foxtail grass, also known as 'rumput bulu' by the local people, is one of the fast growing grasses abundantly available all over Malaysia. A full grown Foxtail grass attains a height of about 0.5 - 1.5 meters. The fibres ...
Review on the various ash from palm oil waste as geopolymer material
(Advanced Study Center Co. Ltd., 2013)
The solid waste from palm oil mill industry has been increasing annually where it has been reported that the palm oil waste was produced 4 million tons/years in Malaysia only. Hence, the solution to overcome the problems ...
Optimization of NaOH Molarity, LUSI Mud/Alkaline Activator, and Na2SiO3/NaOH Ratio to Produce Lightweight Aggregate-Based Geopolymer
(MDPI AG, 2015-05-21)
This paper presents the mechanical function and characterization of an artificial lightweight geopolymer aggregate (ALGA) using LUSI (Sidoarjo mud) and alkaline activator as source materials. LUSI stands for LU-Lumpur and ...
The effect of various waste materials' contents on the attenuation level of anti-radiation shielding concrete
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2013)
Samples of concrete contain various waste materials, such as iron particulates, steel balls of used ball bearings and slags from steel industry were assessed for their anti-radiation attenuation coefficient properties. The ...
