A comprehensive study from detailed microstructure analyses to mass transport
investigations was implemented to explore chloride penetration of unsaturated alkali …

Sustainable construction, especially in cement manufacturing, is gaining momentum due to
its potential in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. A noteworthy solution lies in using …

Understanding and revealing the relationship between the early-age chemical shrinkage,
reaction characteristic and microstructure of alkali-activated slag (AAS) pastes are of …

The long-term corrosion behaviour of reinforcing steel embedded in alkali-activated mortars
(AAMs) prepared with three different binder compositions was monitored over a 360-day …

Marine engineering is faced with the problem of shortage of engineering materials. The local
use of marine raw materials, such as seawater and sea sand, can greatly promote the …

This study investigated the improvement in the behaviour of a clay soil due to the addition of
alkali-activated fly ash as a stabilising agent, and the effects of different activation factors …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the properties of hardened alkali-activated
concrete, which is considered an eco-friendly alternative to Portland cement concrete. In this …

Alkali activated materials are regarded as a substitution building material of Portland
Cement (PC) with high chloride resistance and low CO2 footprint. This review study provides …

The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) technique is widely used in the study of
the corrosion of metallic materials. This method also allows for the electrical characterization …
