A review: Alkali-activated cement and concrete production technologies available in the industry

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
A growing interest in alternative cements has emerged with the sole purpose of reducing the environmental footprint associated with cement production. One of the promising alternatives is to use non-carbonate materials such as alkali-activated materials.

Reaction products, structure and properties of alkali-activated metakaolin cements incorporated with supplementary materials – a review

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2019
Incorporation of mineral blending and/or modifying additions which are single- or multi-component materials is one of the main trends in the development of both Portland clinker-based and non-clinker cements.

Alkali-Activated Materials as Catalysts for Water Purification [PDF]

open access: yesCatalysts, 2021
In this study, novel and cost-effective alkali-activated materials (AAMs) for catalytic applications were developed by using an industrial side stream, i.e., blast furnace slag (BFS). AAMs can be prepared from aluminosilicate precursors under mild conditions (room temperature using non-hazardous chemicals).

Durability of alkali-activated binders: a clear advantage over Portland cement or an unproven issue? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The alkali activation of alumino-silicate materials is a complex chemical process evolving dissolution of raw materials, transportation or orientation and polycondensation of the reaction products.

Instantaneous activation energy of alkali activated materials

open access: yesRILEM Technical Letters, 2019
Alkali activated materials (AAM) are generally cured at high temperatures to compensate for the low reaction rate. Higher temperature accelerates the reaction of AAM as in cement-based materials and this effect is generally predicted using Arrhenius ...

Binder Chemistry – Low-Calcium Alkali-Activated Materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Early developments in the developments of low-calcium (including calcium-free) alkali-activated binders were led by the work of Davidovits in France, as noted in Chap. 2. These materials were initially envisaged as a fire-resistant replacement for organic polymeric materials, with identification of potential applications as a possible binder for ...

Compressive strength variation of alkali activated fly ash/slag concrete with different NaOH concentrations and sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide ratios

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Technologies, 2019
Waste disposal becomes a crucial issue for both the environment and the economy. One of the solutions for waste disposal is to utilize waste materials in concrete production.

Bioactive glass-ceramic scaffolds from novel 'inorganic gel casting' and sinter-crystallization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Highly porous wollastonite-diopside glass-ceramics have been successfully obtained by a new gel-casting technique. The gelation of an aqueous slurry of glass powders was not achieved according to the polymerization of an organic monomer, but as the ...
