Mechanical properties and setting time of ferrochrome slag based geopolymer paste and mortar
Highlights The objective of work is to learn utilization of FS in the production of geopolymer. This paper presents the effects of alkali dosage on the geopolymerization of FS. This paper presents the effects of silica modulus on the geopolymerization of FS. The setting time and hydration heat of geopolymer paste samples were investigated. The compressive strength of geopolymer mortar samples were investigated.
Abstract Many researches have been done to investigate using raw materials in the production of geopolymer cements. This paper presents the effects of alkali dosage and silica modulus when using sodium metasilicate solution at different curing conditions on the geopolymerization of ferrochrome slag (FS). As alkali activation for geopolymerization, NaOH and Na2SiO3 solution were used. Geopolymer cement was produced using FS as raw material with 3 different silica modulus (0.50, 0.60 and 0.70) and 4 different Na2O concentrations (4%, 7%, 10% and 12%). The setting time, hydration heat and compressive strength of geopolymer paste samples and compressive strength of geopolymer mortar samples were obtained. The setting time varied between 120 and 870min, it showed variability depending on Na2O content. The highest 28day compressive strength of the geopolymer paste samples was obtained from one with Na2O concentration of 7% and silica modulus of 0.70. Geopolymer mortars were prepared for the determination of compressive strength by adding FS:sand:alkali activator ratio 1:2:0.30, 0.35 and 0.40. The specimens were cured at 60°C and 80°C kept for 20h and the other mortar samples were stored under laboratory conditions. Compressive strength of the material decreased, when w/b (water/binder) ratio increased. The highest 28day strength of the geopolymer mortar was obtained at 0.30w/b ratio and laboratory temperature curing conditions. The hydration heat of geopolymer paste samples was found to be less than normal Portland cements. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were investigated to study the microstructural properties of the geopolymers.
