Influence of the Composition of the Activator on Mechanical Characteristics of a Geopolymer

Geopolymer materials are characterized by their high durability and low carbon dioxide emissions, when compared with more traditional materials, like concrete made from ordinary Portland cement. These are interesting advantages and might lead to a more sustainable construction industry. The aim of t...
