Comparison of original and sintered LUSI mud from East Java, Indonesia as raw material for making a geopolymer
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)This paper presents the characterization of LUSI mud from East Java, Indonesia, as a potential raw material for making a geopolymer. Two types of LUSI mud were analyzed, i.e., original LUSI mud and LUSI mud that had been ... -
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 ... -
Microstructure study on volcano ash geopolymer aggregate at different sintering temperature
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)Recent research shows that the by-product materials such as fly ash can be used as raw material in producing aggregates and lightweight aggregates. The usage of this material can improve the quality of the aggregates ... -
Effect on strength and hardness of clay ceramic substrate after treatment using koalin based geopolymer glaze
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)Geopolymerization is an alternative for ceramic industry by using clay based material such as kaolin or calcined kaolin geopolymer. Geopolymer paste is initially produced by alkaline activation of calcined kaolin with NaOH ... -
Influence of dolomite on the mechanical properties of boiler ash geopolymer paste
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)The waste material from palm oil industry has been increasing since Malaysia was the world largest exported of palm oil mill. The waste such as palm fibers, nut shells, palm kernel and empty fruit bunches are the solid ... -
Reviews on the different sources materials to the geopolymer performance
(AENSI Publisher All rights reserved, 2013-10)Geopolymer is manufactured from the aluminosilicate source material in example fly ash, silica fume, kaolin, ground granulate blast slag (GGBS), boiler ash and volcano ash reactivated via alkaline solution. But the different ... -
Design, processing and characterization of fly ash-based geopolymers for lightweight concrete application
(Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), 2013-04)The mix design of geopolymers plays important role in obtaining desirable compressive strength. Optimum mix design of geopolymers can be applied for application, such as lightweight concrete. In order to determine the ... -
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 ... -
Study of concrete using modified polystyrene coarse aggregate
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)Polymer recycling has received a great deal of attention in recent years. At the present time, small percentages of polymer wastes in Malaysia are being recycled. The recycling process has typically consisted of reprocessing ... -
Study on refractory materials application using geopolymer processing
(American Scientific Publishers, 2013-01)Geopolymer is cementitious binders that do not require the presence of ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Class F fly ash with geopolymer formulations prepared with an alkaline activator (mixture of Na2SiO3 and NaOH solutions) ... -
