Effects of nanosilica on the calcium silicate hydrates in Portland cement–fly ash systems
Cementitious materials have a complex chemistry and naturally form nanostructures in the hydration process, a network of calcium silicate hydrates. It is considered that nanoparticles such as nanosilica could act as a pozzolanic...
Modification of Hemp Shiv Properties using Water-repellent Sol-gel Coatings
For the first time, the hydrophilicity of hemp shiv was modified without the compromise of its hygroscopic properties. This research focused on the use of sol-gel method in preparation of coatings on the natural plant material...
Chemical aspects related to using recycled geopolymers as aggregates
Despite extensive research into sustainability of geopolymers, end-of-life aspects have been largely overlooked. A recycling scenario is examined in this study. This requires an investigation of alkali leaching potential from...
