Abstract:Geopolymers are amorphous silicate polymers that have been extensively studied due to their applications, scientific and technical relevance, and their potential as cement in substitution to Portland. Much of the focus has been in the use of precursors and aggregates that are rarely pure and homogeneous with the use of tailings being very common. The presence of these impurities complicates the interpretation of some spectral methods, mainly infrared spectrometry. Therefore, this research focuses on the use of… Show more
