Marine concrete is more susceptible to damage from physical pressures and chemical corrosions than regular concrete. Due to its greater mechanical properties and higher resistance in the maritime ...

To halt these alarming pollution figures, innovative research on geopolymer concrete, along with ways of using a waste byproduct from coal-fired powerplants, is being conducted by Dr Erez Allouche ...

In comparison to ordinary Portland cement (OPC), geopolymer concrete (GPC) features greater corrosion resistance, substantially higher fire resistance (up to 2400° F), high compressive and ...

Some of the waste product can be repurposed into geopolymer concrete, such as pre-cast heat-cured elements for structures. However, a critical durability problem has been low resistance to extreme ...

Global Geopolymer (Concrete, Binder) Market Report 2021: Market is Evaluated at $6.431 Billion in 2019 and is Projected to Grow at a CAGR of 29.84% to Surpass $40 Billion by 2026 Research and Markets ...

This made Maria Katzarova, a former associate scientist and member of Wagner’s lab at UD, wonder if it was possible to activate simulated moon and Martian soils to become concrete-like building ...

N. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Jan. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- GeoKast, a newly developed geopolymer admixture designed to produce a more corrosion-resistant concrete will be on display at the 2018 World of ...

The resulting geopolymer cement paste formulations will exhibit 80% reductions in steady-state biodeterioration rates compared to OPC concrete (from ~5 mm/year (0.20 in.year) to ~1 mm/year (0.04 ...

A recent article in Scientific Reports looks at how gold ore tailings (GOTs) and recycled coarse aggregates (RCAs) can be used as substitutes for river sand (RS) in geopolymer concrete (GPC).
