Fly ash is used as alumina-silicate resource material to reaction processing on geopolymer materials. The strength of material is belonging to alkaline liquid, fly ash, activity reaction of fly ash. Geopolymer concrete as non-toxic, bleed free and high strength material can be used for construction on rigid pavement. Study on influence of polypropylene fiber on performance characteristic of geopolymer concrete is considered. In this research, the mix proportion with fly ash and alkaline liquid is used to react on geopolymer concrete. The poly-propylene fiber in range from 0 to 0.5% by volume is added in mixture of geopolymer concrete. The ratio between length and diameter in range of 100-500 is investigated. The results are indicated that workability of fresh concrete is reduced by using poly-propylene fiber. The adding of poly-propylene fiber is significantly affected on characteristic of geopolymer concrete. Poly-propylene fiber can be distributed in fly ash matrix and reduced shrinkage of concrete during activation. After geopolymerization, compressive and the flexural strength of concrete produced with fibers are enhanced up to 10% and 20%, respectively. However, when the length to diameter ratio increases, compressive strength is tended to decrease with mixture using polypropylene fiber.

Geopolymers have many advantages over Portland cement, including energy efficiency, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, high strength at early age and improved thermal resistance. Alkali activated geopolymers made from waste materials such as fly ash or blast furnace slag are particularly advantageous because of their environmental sustainability and low cost. However, their durability and functionality remain subjects for further study. Geopolymer materials can be used in various applications such as fire and heat resistant fiber composites, sealants, concretes, ceramics, etc., depending on the chemical composition of the source materials and the activators. In this study, we investigated the thermal properties and microstructure of fly ash and blast furnace slag based geopolymers in order to develop eco-friendly construction materials with excellent energy efficiency, sound insulation properties and good heat resistance. With different curing times, specimens of various compositions were investigated in terms of compressive strength, X-ray diffraction, thermal property and microstructure. In addition, we investigated changes in X-ray diffraction and microstructure for geopolymers exposed to 1,000 oC heat.

In this paper, fly ash was investigated as a basic Si-Al ingredient of geopolymer. Based on compressive and flexural strength, the replacement percentage of fly ash and 3 types of curing regimes were studied to obtain the optimum synthesis condition. The results showed that geopolymer containing 30% fly ash that was prepared at 80˚C for 8 hours, exhibited high mechanical strength. The compressive and flexural strength of the fly ash based geopolymer were 32.2 and 7.15MPa, respectively. In order to investigate the durability behavior of fly ash based geopolymer concrete, CI permeability, freeze-thaw tests were also carried out. The measured results indicated that fly ash based gopolymer concrete had 2.63 times lower coefficient of chloride-ion diffusion and could withdraw 2.2 times more freeze-thaw cycles as compared to Portland concrete with the same compressive strength.

In this research work, the effect of seawater in the synthesis of fly ash based geopolymer was investigated. Fly ash as a binder was mixed with alkaline activator. The activator used was a mixture of NaOH solution and liquid sodium silicate. The NaOH solution was prepared by dissolving NaOH pellets in seawater to 10mol/L. In this study, compressive strength testing, X-ray diffraction, mercury intrusion porosimetry, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy, and analyses for acid- and water-soluble chloride contents were carried out on hardened geopolymer paste samples.

In this study, it was developed geopolymer concrete of alkali-activated using the mixed fly ash and blast furnace slag. and it was developed the interlocking block using the developed geopolymer concrete. In addition, the bending strength and water absorption rate of the interlocking block was tested by KS standard. The test results were as follows. The water adsorption ratio of the BSF4 specimen was under 10%, and the flexural strength of that was over 5MPa

Geopolymer has recently emerged as an environmentally sustainable material considered to be an alternative to conventional Portland cement. Current study exhibits and discusses the results of experiment on the alteration in mechanical strength of fly ash-based geopolymer mortar activated by alkaline solution with three different sodium hydroxide solution concentrations (etc 10M, 14M and 18M) after exposure to elevated temperatures ranging from 100oC to 1000oC. Thegeopolymermotarexhibitedits strength increase after exposure at 100oC or 200oC ,followed bythe considerable strength loss in strength between 300oC and 700oC. However, the mortar strength rose slightly after exposure to temperature range from 800oC to 1000oC due to the viscous sintering process.

Geopolymer foam block was prepared and its characteristics discussed to evaluate the possibility of replacing blastfurnace slag (below BFS) with melting slag in this study. 10~20wt% of BFS was replaced with melting slag. And also10wt% of mine tailing was replaced with fly ash discharged from municipal solid waste incinerator (below MSWI). Thecompressive strength of foam block prepared was similar to that of foam block prepared without replacing BFS. Andalso it was increased by replacing 10wt% of mine tailing with MSWI fly ash. Considering these results, melting slagmay be used instead of BFS without damaging the quality of foam block.
