Mechanism of geopolymerization and factors influencing its development: a review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the work carried out on the chemical reaction, the source materials, and the factor affecting geopolymerization, and demonstrate that certain mix compositions and reaction conditions such as Al2O3/SiO2, alkali concentration, curing temperature with curing time, water/solid ratio and pH significantly influences the formation and properties of a geopolymers.

Geopolymers and Related Alkali-Activated Materials

TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of alkali-activated binders from blast furnace slag, calcined clay (metakaolin), and fly ash is discussed, including analysis of the chemical reaction mechanisms and binder phase assemblages that control the early-age and hardened properties of these materials.

The effects of ground granulated blast-furnace slag blending with fly ash and activator content on the workability and strength properties of geopolymer concrete cured at ambient temperature

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of different proportions of ground granulated blast-furnace slag and activator content on the workability and strength properties of fly ash based geopolymer concrete was evaluated.
