Metakaolin as cementitious material: History, scours, production and composition – A comprehensive overview

Alaa M. Rashad
- 01 Apr 2013 - 
TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of the previous works carried out on kaolin history, metakaolin sources, production and composition can be found in this article, where the authors also present a survey of the existing works.

The effect of metakaolin on the corrosion behavior of cement mortars

George Batis, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2005 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of metakaolin addition on the corrosion resistance of cement mortar is studied, where a poor Greek kaolin with a low kaolinite content was thermally treated and the produced metakaolis (MKC) was ground to the appropriate fineness.

Dehydroxylation of Kaolinite to Metakaolin - A Molecular Dynamics Study

Shani Sperinck, +3 more
- 01 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the thermally induced transformation of metakaolin is simulated using molecular dynamics through a step-wise dehydroxylation approach, which is characterized by a loss of crystallinity and a concomitant change in aluminium coordination from octahedral to tetrahedral.

Metakaolin as a main cement constituent. Exploitation of poor Greek kaolins

E. Badogiannis, +4 more
- 01 Feb 2005 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the properties and the hydration procedure of cements containing metakaolin were monitored for periods up to 180 days, where four metakaolins derived from poor Greek kaolins, as well as a commercial one of high purity were used.
