Abstract Kaolin samples were collected to study the mineralogical, texture, chemical composition, thermal behavior, and treatment also possibility convert kaolinite mineral into metakaolin use it as a natural pozzolanic and/or geopolymer materials. Kaolinite is main constituent of clay mineral, which related many weathering parent rocks complete leaching alkali elements under warm, humid semi-a...

Geopolymers are inorganic aluminosilicate materials, which have been a great research interest as material for sustainable development. However, they possess relatively low toughness properties similar to brittle solids. The limitation may be altered by fiber reinforcement improve their strength and toughness. This describes the synthesis of bamboo shaving (BS) reinforced geopolymer composites ...

The objective of the research is to develop a new family geopolymeric materials and use an experimental methodology characterize mechanical behavior obtained by alkaline activation metakaolin using compound activator. researchers also intend study unknown time evolution modulus elasticity influence composition aggregates on strength material. Like material’s strength, results have direct struct...
