Aiming at reducing the environmental effects generated by the manufacturing of Portland
cement, the construction sector perceives significant potential in alkali-activated cements …

One of the most used characterization techniques in the field of alkaline activated cements
studies is infrared spectroscopy. Its prominence lies in that it allows characterizing mixtures …

Coral sand is widely encountered in coastal areas of tropical and subtropical regions.
Compared with silica sand, it usually exhibits weaker performance from the perspective of …

Alkali-activated cement is a promising alternative to replace totally or partially Portland
cement. The heat flow and the degree of reaction are widely analyzed variables on the alkali …

Alkali fusion of granite sawdust at a high alkali dosage can significantly improve
geopolymerization activity, but also result in a high alkali consumption and a poor …

This study investigated the influence of alkali content on the early-age hydration process of
slag-based geopolymer and the feasibility of non-destructive resistivity. Results showed that …

Global concrete production, reaching 14× 10 13 m 3/year, raises environmental concerns
due to the resource-intensive nature of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) manufacturing …

Silica fly ash, Certyd aggregate, and an alkaline solution were used to produce lightweight
geopolymer concretes. The compressive strength, water absorption, and bulk density …

Teniendo en cuenta el potencial de los cementos geopoliméricos como una alternativa para
sustituir parcialmente al cemento Portland, este artículo presenta el análisis del efecto que …

Lightweight concrete has a history of more than two-thousand years and its technical
development is still proceeding. Despite the diversity of lightweight aggregates available …
