Abstract
A study was undertaken into the preparation and properties of fly-ash-based geopolymers that can be used to make multistage-pore materials able to adsorb gases such as carbon dioxide. The influence of steel slag on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the final precursor products was investigated and characterised by mechanical strength tests, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry–differential thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and mercury intrusion porosimetry. The results showed that a low dose of steel slag significantly promoted the early compressive strength of a multistage-pore geopolymer. However, when the slag dose reached 30%, the strength decreased dramatically. The pore classification effect was more obvious when the capillary pores in the geopolymer disappeared and the pores mainly existed in the form of gel pores and voids.
期刊介绍:
Engineering Sustainability provides a forum for sharing the latest thinking from research and practice, and increasingly is presenting the ''how to'' of engineering a resilient future. The journal features refereed papers and shorter articles relating to the pursuit and implementation of sustainability principles through engineering planning, design and application. The tensions between and integration of social, economic and environmental considerations within such schemes are of particular relevance. Methodologies for assessing sustainability, policy issues, education and corporate responsibility will also be included. The aims will be met primarily by providing papers and briefing notes (including case histories and best practice guidance) of use to decision-makers, practitioners, researchers and students.
