Alkali-activated materials (AAM) are known to be environmentally friendly alternatives to
cement-based materials because they can potentially reduce greenhouse gas emissions …

Scientific interest on superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) in conjunction with cement-based
building materials has widened from mostly engineering aspects towards polymer physico …

Alkali-activated binders are considered as promising alternatives for ordinary Portland
cement (OPC) binders due to their positive environmental effects and excellent mechanical …

Alkali-activated binders or geopolymers are identified as an ideal substitute for ordinary
Portland cement (OPC) binders because of their outstanding mechanical characteristics and …

The reuse of waste concrete powder (WCP) in the synthesis of alkali-activated binder (AAB)
composites has never been investigated. Herein, this paper reports the study about the …

Alkali-activated slag concrete (AASC) is a new green building material. The amount of CO 2
produced by AASC is 1/5th of that produced by ordinary Portland cement concrete (OPCC) …

This paper provides a critical review on autogenous shrinkage of alkali-activated slag (AAS).
It is reported that AAS paste, mortar, and concrete generally show larger autogenous …

Superabsorbent polymers (SAP) are a new, promising class of chemical admixtures which
offer new possibilities in respect of influencing the properties of cement-based materials in …

In this paper, the superabsorbent polymer (SAP) was applied as internal curing agent to
study its effect on the autogenous shrinkage and hydration property of alkali activated slag …

This study aims to provide a better understanding of the autogenous shrinkage of slag and
fly ash-based alkali-activated materials (AAMs) cured at ambient temperature. The main …
