| 总结: | Performance of geopolymer based specimens is significantly affected by internal and external aspects. Curing temperature and air humidity are among the prominent external factors that
contribute to the alteration of geopolymer properties. Nevertheless, internal component of
geopolymer binder also carries essential effect to the hardened geopolymer binder produced. In this
research, the study was concentrated on the elemental composition of source material components
and their interrelation to the performance of geopolymer binder produced. Different types of fly ash
were used as the source material in this research. Low calcium (class-F) fly ash was combined with
high calcium (class-C) fly ash to determine the elemental composition effect, particularly SiO2,
Al2O3, and CaO to the geopolymer properties. Analysis using SYSTAT statistical software indicated the importance of oxide composition of source material to the geopolymer specimens
produced. Initial setting time of geopolymer paste was also possibly important to the compressive
strength of geopolymer specimens produced. Nevertheless, final setting time indicated less
importance to the compressive strength development of geopolymer binder. |
