Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9Reaction Kinetics and Properties of Pumice-Based Geopolymer Systems Cured at Room Temperature(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023-12) Kucukyildirim, Enver; Yorulmaz, Hediye; Durak, Ugur; Ilkentapar, Serhan; Uzal, Burak; Karahan, Okan; Atis, Cengiz DuranThis research investigated the kinetics of pumice-based geopolymer systems and their physical and mechanical properties. The effect of the Na2SiO3/NaOH ratio of geopolymer systems on the rate of heat evolution and total heat of reaction were examined via isothermal calorimetry of geopolymer pastes prepared with Na2SiO3/NaOH ratios of 2.5, 3, and 3.5. Hardened pastes were also studied with thermo-gravimetric analysis to determine weight loss. In addition, the unit weights and compressive strengths of the pastes prepared using pumice were measured. Although the hydration process starts the earliest in pumice-based geopolymer pastes with a Na2SiO3/ NaOH ratio of 2, they have the lowest total hydration temperature. Na2SiO3/NaOH ratio of 2.5 by mass, shows higher weight loss obtained from TGA results. The compressive strength of the paste sample, prepared with a Na2SiO3/NaOH ratio of 3.5 by mass, was the highest, with 36.30 MPa at 28d. Depending on the Na2SiO3/NaOH ratio, it is thought that as the amount of Na2SiO3 increases in the samples, silica gel formation increases in later ages.Article Citation - WoS: 76Citation - Scopus: 81Influence of NaNo SiO2 and NaNo CaCo3 Particles on Strength, Workability, and Microstructural Properties of Fly Ash-Based Geopolymer(Ernst & Sohn, 2020-05-06) Durak, Ugur; Karahan, Okan; Uzal, Burak; Ilkentapar, Serhan; Atis, Cengiz DuranThe influence of nano SiO2(NS) and CaCO3(NC) particles on the properties of class F fly ash based geopolymer mortar activated with different sodium ion concentrations have been investigated. Mortar mixture proportions were 1:3:0.3 for binder, sand, and water, respectively. Nano SiO2 and CaCO3 particles were replaced with a binder by weight basis at the ratios of 1, 2, and 3% in the mixtures. Sodium concentrations amount used were 8, 10, and 12% Na+ of binder content. Geopolymer mortar samples were cured at 60, 75, and 90 degrees C in a furnace for 24, 48, and 72 hr. After the heat curing process, flexural, and compressive strength tests were performed. The changes in the microstructure of geopolymer due to influence of nanoparticles were examined by utilizing isothermal calorimetric studies on geopolymer paste, and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Based on laboratory work results, it was concluded that for all sodium ion concentrations, the addition of nano SiO2 and CaCO3 particles improved the flexural and compressive strengths after 24 hr heat curing. However, the favorable effects of nanoparticles on strength properties tend to disappear after 48 and 72 hr heat curing. The results of isothermal calorimetric studies showed that nano SiO2 and CaCO3 particles accelerated the geopolymeric reactions at an early age. FESEM results showed that additions of nanoparticles made the microstructure of geopolymer products more intense and compact.
