Alkali-activated materials are a new class of compounds that have been studied by several
authors worldwide. Alkali-activated binders can be competitive alternatives to traditional …

Lime and Portland cement are the most widely used binders in soil stabilization projects.
However, due to the high carbon emission in cement production, research on soil …

To future-proof alkali-activation technology, there is a need to look beyond well-established
precursors such as fly ash and blast furnace slag, due to resource competition, geographical …

The geopolymer technique is a promising method for the solidification/stabilization (S/S)
treatment of municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWIFA). To investigate the …

This paper reviews about geopolymers fundamental focusing in clay materials. The review
includes the chemistry and structure of geopolymers, reaction mechanism and prime …

Although the formation of zeolites in geopolymers have been mentioned in many works, a
particular interest in geopolymer-zeolite composites started to increase very recently. Such …

Rapid urbanization, industrialization, and economic expansion are driving up demand for
cement-based products, particularly concrete, resulting in high levels of greenhouse gas …

Lateritic soils are abundant materials available around the tropical and sub-tropical areas in
the world. However, due to their chemical and mineralogical complexity, their use in …

Effective promotion of GPC is required in order to minimize the environment threat due to fly
