- Abstract
Compared to the salt-free geopolymer, the Na SB 2 sb SiO SB 4 sb -activated geopolymer containing 8.5 wt% MgCl SB 2 sb -6H SB 2 sb O exhibited a lower 28 d compressive strength (30.1 MPa) and a more loosely bound geopolymer matrix, and the Na SB 2 sb SiO SB 4 sb -activated geopolymer with 9.0 wt% MgSiO SB 4 sb exhibited a lower compressive strength of 42.8 MPa. In order to facilitate the applications of cement-based composites, we require an understanding of composite microstructures for achieving advanced mechanical properties. The synergistic effect between the added constituents and cement matrix leads to the enhanced properties of cement-based composites compared to conventional construction materials.
