. ABSTRACT Water and air pollution are pervasive issues, impacting the majority of global citizens. In response, geopolymers functionalized with photocatalytic metal oxides have emerged as sustainable materials for environmental remediation. This study examines how the Si/Al molar ratio (1 and 2) and photocatalytic WO3 loading (WO3/Al molar ratios of ...

Metakaolin Effects on Concrete Durability
Partial replacement of cement by metakaolin is known to improve concrete durability, by refining the pore structure to improve fluid transport properties and by reducing the alkalinity of the pore solution to make ASR less problematic.

Lime Activated Fly Ash Paste in the Presence of Metakaolin
The strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity of fly ash paste activated by lime and metakaolin is presented in this paper. Two fly ash pastes were prepared, one without metakaolin and one with 25% of metakaolin to replace the fly ash.
