••
TL;DR: The use of synthetic fibers positively affected high-temperature behavior of metakaolin-based geopolymer composites in terms of strength loss, weight loss and UPV loss as mentioned in this paper.

••
TL;DR: In this article, the structure and mechanical performance of red mud-metakaolin based geopolymers with varying red mud contents (0-40% red mud in red mud raw material mixture) were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and compressive strength measurements to understand structure-performance relationships in this system.

••
TL;DR: The mechanical properties and durability of volcanic ash-based geopolymer mortars synthesized at 27°C and 80°C were evaluated in this article, where they achieved a compressive strength of 20.5 MPa after 28 days and reached a maximum strength of 37.9 MPa at 90 days for specimens cured at 80 °C.

TL;DR: In this article, compressive strength changes, Vickers-hardness of exposed surface, microstructure evolution and pore structure of geopolymer prepared using fly ash as resource material and activated by sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide solutions after exposed to sulfate attack for 28, 90 and 180 days when fly ash was partially replaced by metakaolin at levels ranging from 0% to 20% with an interval of 5%, by weight.
