Abstrakt:

This research used fly ash and slag to create geopolymer foam concrete. They were activated with an alkali, resulting in a chemical reaction that produced a gel that strengthened the concrete’s structural integrity. The experimental approach involved varying the fly ash content in the precursors at incremental percentages (10%, 30%, 50%, 70% and 90%) and subjecting the fly ash to mechanical activation through a planetary ball mill at distinct rotational speeds (380, 400, 420 and 440 rpm). The investigation discerned that the fly ash content and particle structure exert a discernible influence on macroscopic properties, including flowability, air generation height, compressive strength, dry density and microstructural characteristics such as pore distribution and hydration product arrangement in the geopolymer foam concrete. Employing analytical techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), it was deduced that diminishing the fly ash content correlates with an enhancement in compressive strength. Furthermore, the specific strength of the geopolymer foam concrete reached a peak of 0.041 when the activated fly ash in the planetary ball mill rotated at 420 rpm, manifesting a lightweight and high-strength outcome.
