The building industry, which emits a significant quantity of greenhouse gases, is under
tremendous pressure due to global climate change and its consequences for communities …

The negative impacts of cement-based material (CBM) production are way bigger than ever
expected. To illustrate the scale of this phenomenon, all the forests in the world, regardless …

The use of nano-materials to improve the engineering properties of different types of
concrete composites including geopolymer concrete (GPC) has recently gained popularity …

Ancient Roman concretes have survived millennia, but mechanistic insights into their
durability remain an enigma. Here, we use a multiscale correlative elemental and chemical …

Since nanotechnology can enhance the performance of materials, significant effort has been
expended in recent years to incorporate nanoparticles (NPs) into geopolymer concrete …

The desire to make the concrete industry more environmentally friendly has existed for a
long time. Geopolymer concrete, which uses industrial or agricultural by-product ashes as …

Cracks in cement concrete composites, whether autogenous or loading-initiated, are almost
inevitable and often difficult to detect and repair, posing a threat to safety and durability of …

The manufacture of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) produces a lot of CO 2 in the
atmosphere. Researchers have recently focused on exploring the behaviour of geopolymer …

Although a novel inorganic family of geopolymer concrete (GPC) is a promising building
material. The need for understanding its resistance against fire at high temperatures is …

Geopolymers are novel cementitious materials that have the potential to replace
conventional Portland cement composites completely. The production of geopolymer …
