Geopolymers have been a frequently studied topic during the last decades due to waste
materials utilization, low energy demands, and low carbon dioxide emissions related to their …

Some of the primary problems of construction are brittleness and low the mechanical
properties of good thermal insulation materials. Heat-insulating foam concrete has a low …

The article aims to present the modified structural composition of the sub-ballast layers of the
railway substructure, in which a part of the natural materials for the establishment of sub …

Various types of coatings are applied to the surface of an object or substrate to improve
surface properties or extend service life, which in turn is associated with cost reductions. The …

This paper investigates the physico-mechanical and acoustic properties of fly ash
geopolymers via casting and pressing methods. The existing research lacks comprehensive …

This study aims to study the feasibility of using additives to prolong the setting times of high-
calcium fly ash-based geopolymer. Moreover, the effect of sodium silicate and sodium …

A car muffler is a device to improve car noise emission. Some conventional mufflers use
layers of glass fiber as a material to absorb noise. However, filling glass fiber is an …

Geopolymer foams with different pore structures can be used in construction, water
treatment, and heavy metal adsorption. The preparation of high porosity geopolymer foams …

Geopolymer lightweight cellular concrete (GLCC) combines the advantages of geopolymer
and LCC but also suffers from the inherent deficiency of low strength, which can be …
