A geopolymer is a solid aluminosilicate material usually formed by
alkali hydroxide or alkali silicate activation of a solid precursor
such as coal fly ash, calcined clay and/or metallurgical slag.
Today the primary application of geopolymer technology is in the
development of reduced-CO2 construction materials as an alternative
to Portland-based cements. Geopolymers: structure, processing,
properties and industrial applications reviews the latest research
on and applications of these highly important materials.
Part one discusses the synthesis and characterisation of
geopolymers with chapters on topics such as fly ash chemistry and
inorganic polymer cements, geopolymer precursor design,
nanostructure/microstructure of metakaolin and fly ash geopolymers,
and geopolymer synthesis kinetics. Part two reviews the manufacture
and properties of geopolymers including accelerated ageing of
geopolymers, chemical durability, engineering properties of
geopolymer concrete, producing fire and heat-resistant geopolymers,
utilisation of mining wastes and thermal properties of geopolymers.
Part three covers applications of geopolymers with coverage of
topics such as commercialisation of geopolymers for construction,
as well as applications in waste management.
With its distinguished editors and international team of
contributors, Geopolymers: structure, processing, properties and
industrial applications is a standard reference for scientists and
engineers in industry and the academic sector, including
practitioners in the cement and concrete industry as well as those
involved in waste reduction and disposal.
