Reinforcement corrosion reduces the service life of concrete buildings and infrastructures,
resulting in significant worldwide economic losses every year. Alkali-activated materials …

Alkali-activated binders are attracting more and more attention as they could potentially be
substitutes for traditional Portland cement. Alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR) has been …

By harnessing the benefits from both construction and demolition waste recycling and
geopolymer binders, geopolymeric recycled aggregate concrete (GRAC) can contribute to …

This study investigates the effectiveness of metakaolin (MK) in mitigating the autogenous
shrinkage of alkali-activated slag (AAS). It is found that the autogenous shrinkage of AAS …

This study focused on the reaction and initial setting of NaOH-activated slag with different
CaSO 4 contents. The macroscopic properties were firstly investigated, and then the reaction …

Based on the characteristics of alkali-activated materials (AAMs) in energy saving and
emission reduction, as well as giving full play to the complementary advantages of multi …

Geopolymer cement is the result of reaction of two materials containing aluminosilicate and
concentrated alkaline solution to produce an inorganic polymer binder. The alkali solutions …

Marble, as a widely used building decoration material, produces a significant amount of
waste marble powder (WMP) during processing. To investigate the potential of WMP as a …

The use of alkali-activated materials to produce concrete is a promising technology.
However, information on the optimum curing regime required to maximize the performance …

Alkaline cements were studied using limestone as the only precursor activated with
solutions of sodium hydroxide and waterglass; the activator was used at concentrations of 7 …
