Effect of the SiO2 /Al2 O3 and Na2 O/SiO2 ratios on the properties of geopolymers based on MK
In this work, the effects of the molar ratios SiO2 /Al2 O3 (3.0 – 4.0) and Na2 O/ SiO2 (0.25 – 0.40) on the compression strength and the autogenous shrinkage of geopolymers based on Metakaolin (MK) were investigated.

Investigating the retarding effect of CAC in alkali-activated cements
This paper discusses the design of hybrid alkali-activated binders at ambient temperature, specifically the development of mixes based on ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) with calcium aluminate cement (CAC) as an additive, aiming to obtain ...

Influence of size reduction of fly ash particles by grinding on the chemical properties of geopolymers [PDF]
Chemical properties of geopolymers were evaluated from the reduction of fly ash particle size by grinding. X-ray diffraction determined that at early curing ages new crystalline phases appear in the matrix of the geopolymer and they remain for 28 days ...

Porous glass-ceramics from alkali activation and sinter-crystallization of mixtures of waste glass and residues from plasma processing of municipal solid waste [PDF]
Alkali-activated aqueous slurries of fine glass powders, mostly deriving from the plasma processing of municipal solid waste ('Plasmastone'), were found to undergo progressive hardening at low temperature (75 degrees C) owing to the formation of C-S-H ...

Fibre Reinforced Alkali-Activated Rock Wool
Mineral wool, i.e. rock and glass wool, represents considerable challenge after its functional-time runs out due to its small density leading to large volume consumption during transport and in landfills where it usually ends. Because rock wool is mineralogically and chemically a promising precursor material for alkali-activation, it was milled from ...

Synthesis of geopolymer from spent FCC: Effect of SiO2/Al2O
This paper assesses the feasibility of using a spent fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (SFCC) as precursor for the production of geopolymers. The mechanical and structural characterization of alkali-activated SFCC binders formulated with different ...

Adsorption performance of basic fuchsin on alkali-activated diatomite
The natural diatomite was treated with NaOH to obtain alkali-activated diatomite. The materials were systematically characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic, scanning electron microscopy, and

Alkaline Activation of Kaolin Group Minerals
Zeolites can be obtained in the process of the alkali-activation of aluminosilicate precursors. Such zeolite–geopolymer hybrid bulk materials merge the advantageous properties of both zeolites and geopolymers. In the present study, the effect of the type
