Effect of adding acid solution on setting time and compressive strength of high calcium fly ash based geopolymer [PDF]
Fly ash with high calcium oxide content when used as the base material in geopolymer concrete could cause flash setting or rapid hardening. However, it might increase the compressive strength of geopolymer concrete.

Enhancing the Reactivity of Dicalcium Silicate Using Aluminum and Sulfur Ions Co‐Doping
ABSTRACT Belite‐rich cements are a lower‐energy and lower‐CO2 alternative to Portland cements, but the low hydraulic activity of belite remains a major limitation. This study explores the impact of aluminum and sulfur co‐doping on the structure and hydration of synthetic dicalcium silicate (C2S).

Innovative Application of SRG for Strengthening Continuous RC Beams
Steel‐reinforced grout (SRG) effectively strengthens continuous reinforced concrete beams, enhancing flexural capacity by up to 81%. Using geopolymer mortar promotes sustainability while steel fabrics outperform carbon, glass, and PBO alternatives. Low‐density SRG provides superior bonding and structural efficiency, offering a practical solution for ...

Metakaolin based geopolymer concrete with recycled geopolymer concrete dust
Mechanical analyzes were carried out on the recycled concrete samples obtained by preparing different mixtures of geopolymer powder, metakaolin, aggregates and alkali activator as sodium silicate (Na2SO3) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution, which were formed by grinding the geopolymer concrete samples prepared with certain temperature and low curing ...
