Geopolymers have been intensively explored over the past several decades and considered
as green materials and may be synthesised from natural sources and wastes. Global …

Geopolymer is one of the trending research areas in composite materials; there are many
areas in geopolymer that unexplored still need to be explored. In this paper, an attempt is …

Rapid infrastructure development has led to an enormous demand for cement and a huge
production of construction and demolition (C&D) waste. The ever-growing demand for …

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of incorporating quarry dust waste on the mechanical
properties of metakaolin-based geopolymers. Sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide were …

In this study, metakaolin and red mud were used as solid precursors to synthesize
geopolymer monoliths coupling hierarchical porosity with suitable compressive strength (4.5 …

The complex waste glass (WG) coming from the automotive vehicle industry has very low
recycling potential and goes mainly to landfills. This research aims to develop a sustainable …

Portland cement production is an energy-intensive process, and more sustainable
substitutes are needed, eg, alkali-activated binders originated from industrial wastes. Thus …

Searching for innovative solutions to produce alternative construction materials using
residues is a need to reduce the exploitation of natural resources. Alkali-activated cements …

This study focused on the influence of high H 2 O/Na 2 O ratios (higher than 20) on the
properties of metakaolin-based geopolymers in fresh and hardened states while keeping …

Concrete has been a common building material widely used for decades to build the
infrastructure. As a results, considerable amount of waste concrete is produced which is …
