Abstract:.This study presents curing temperature influences to behaviors of geopolymer concrete. The concrete was fly ash based, with the ratio of fly ash to alkaline activator was 65%:35%. Ratio coarse aggregate to fine aggregate was 60%:40%, ratios Na 2 SiO 3 /NaOH were 1.5:2 and 2.5. A polycarboxilate superplasticizer with ratio was 2% to fly ash weight. Form of the test specimens were cylinder with diameter of 10 cm and 20 cm high. Steam curing conducted were at 40ᴼC, 60ᴼC and 80ᴼC for 24 hours. The control specime… Show more
“…Actually, there are a great agreement that degree of heating plays an important role in accelerating strength [22], that fact was robustly confirmed by series of research contributions through the literature [23]. In general sense, heating changes the formation of the crystals of the resulted Geopolymers gel which lead to many mechanical properties of Geopolymers to be enhanced [24], the most interesting enhanced mechanical properties comprise compressive strength [25] and even tensile strength [26], [27]. It was clearly noticed that soil -Geopolymers applications are a current issue [28] and this dictates another efforts to improve the knowledge about this effect of heating temperature to paralyze the good experience that was acquired in Geopolymers mortar and concrete and that what is aimed throughout this paper.…”
When soft clay soils are included in engineering projects, it’s stabilized usually with some kinds of admixtures named as stabilizers. The common stabilizers that highly practiced are OPC, lime, high calcium fly ash (FA), etc. Each one of these stabilizers has its shortcomings. Geopolymers are the product of alkali activated aluminosilicate sources that excelled as an alternative to ordinary binders due to its sustainability, low cost and good mechanical properties. This study investigates the effects of some key elements like liquid over fly ash ratio (Liq/FA), initial duration curing time (D) and its temperature to soil – FA based Geopolymers samples characterized by its unconfined compressive strength testing (UCS), volumetric measurements, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-Ray diffraction (XRD). The Liq/FA taken as 2.71, 3.167, 3.8 and 4.75 respectively and the duration time taken were 1, 6, 18 and 24 hrs. respectively. The tests results showed that the maximum peak strength gain when Liq/FA is 3.8 at 90 oC with 24 hrs. D. It was observed that Young’s Modulus increased with increasing curing temperature for certain D. Volumetric strain increased by increasing D and its temperature. SEM and XRD analyses confirmed the Geopolymers gels formation for a selective precursor while EDX analyses showed that silicon over aluminium ratio is 1.38 for selective spectrum within the gel to the same mixture.

“…The specifications for fly ash can be found in ASTM C618 -19 [9]. Researches on geopolymers mostly were used of class F fly ash [10]. Fly ash supplied from Suralaya, Banten, Indonesia.…”
Cement, an important part of concrete mixture, determine the mechanical properties of concrete. The mixture of cement and water will stimulate the hydration reaction which will produce CSH gel and heat of hydration. The high level of CO2 pollution produced in the cement manufacturing process requires alternative efforts to replace cement with other pozzolanic materials. One of the materials that can replace the role of cement in concrete mixture is fly ash. The replacement of cement 100% with fly ash will produce a geopolymer concrete, which requires an alkaline solution as a reagent from fly ash. This research was conducted with the aim to explore the effect of steam curing to the compressive strength of geopolymer concrete with different molarities. As the test object in this study was a geopolymer concrete cylinder with a standard size i.e. 150 mm × 300 mm. The molarity of NaOH solution varying from 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 to 16 M. The temperature of steam curing was carried out varied from 60oC, 80oC, up to 90oC, with duration from 1 until 4 hours. The compressive strength test conducted for 28 days old of concrete cylinder specimens. The results show an indication of an increase in the compressive strength of the concrete along with the increase in the molarity of the NaOH solution. In addition, it can also be shown that the steam curing process at a temperature of 60oC with 4 hours in duration shows optimal compressive strength results.

Section: Pengaruh Ratio Alkali Aktivator Na 2 Sio 3 /Naoh Terhadap Kuat Tekanunclassified
Beton merupakan salah satu material yang paling banyak digunakan untuk infrastruktur, tetapi menggunakan semen sebagai bahan dasar. Proses produksi semen akan menghasilkan gas CO2 yang dapat meningkatkan pemanasan global. Untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, sudah seharusnya mencari bahan pengganti sebagai bahan pengikat untuk membuat beton. Bahan pengganti semen yang mengandung silika dan alumina akan berperan penting untuk mengendalikan masalah tersebut. Fly ash merupakan limbah dari pembakaran batu bara yang memiliki sifat pozzolanic. Studi literatur ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh rasio alkali Na2SiO3/NaOH, molaritas NaOH, suhu dan waktu curing, umur beton pada beton geopolimer dengan bahan dasar 100% fly ash terhadap nilai kuat tekan. Rasio alkali Na2SiO3/NaOH sebesar 2,5 yang menghasilkan nilai kuat tekan yang optimal, sedangkan semakin besar molaritas NaOH akan menghasilkan kekuatan yang meningkat tetapi akan mempercepat ikat awal.Kuat tekan beton geopolimer yang di curing akan semakin meningkat seiring dengan bertambahnya suhu curing hingga 800C, setelah melewati 800C persentasekenaikan kuat tekan beton pada penelitian ini mengalami penurunan. Selain itu,waktu curing efektif diperoleh pada waktu 24 jam.Kekuatan tekan beton juga semakin meningkat seiring dengan bertambahnya umur beton, peningkatan efektif pada umur beton 7 hari.
