| Popis: | As concrete demand is constantly increasing in recent years and also considering that cement production is both a consumer of natural resources and a source of carbon dioxide release into the atmosphere, there have been worldwide investigations into green alternatives for making concrete environmentally friendlier and simultaneously to satisfy the development of infrastructure facilities. The use of fly ash as a component of cementitious binders is not new but when considering the specific case of alkaline activation and fly ash representing the only source for the binder formation, it necessitates a more complete understanding of its specific reactions during the alkaline activation process. Since the fly ash varies dramatically, not only from one source to another, but also from one batch to another even when provided by the same power plant, its chemistry in obtaining alkali-activated materials during the geopolymerisation process and the final mechanical properties are considered crucial for the performance of geopolymer concrete. This paper will provide a review of the experimental results concerning the physical and mechanical evaluation of the alkali-activated fly ash-based geopolymer materials, developed with different types of fly ash, for a better understanding of geopolymer concrete production control. |
