PublicationMicrostructure and porosity evolution of alkali activated slag at various heating temperatures( 2020)
;Ikmal Hakem Aziz ; ;M.A.A. Mohd Salleh ;Sorachon Yoriya ;Jitrin Chaiprapa ;Catleya RojviriyaLong Yuan LiThis paper elucidated the microstructural and porosity evolution of alkali activated slag at 800 °C up to 1200 °C. The microstructural analysis obtained shows the changes in surface densification of glassy phase and nucleation of dynamical grains within the alkali activated slag when in contact with high heating temperature. Using synchrotron radiation X-ray tomographic microscopy, the number of pores in alkali activated slag decreased with increasing heating temperature. The 3D pores distribution also demonstrated significant increase in the range size of ~20 μm with the appearance of isolated and intergranular pores at 1200 °C. These changes also led to the anorthite crystallisation indicated by high angle grain boundaries and preferred crystal orientation. The evolution of porosity and crystalline phase is contributed to the development of internal strain after heating at high temperature environment. -
PublicationMechanical performance, microstructure, and porosity evolution of fly ash geopolymer after ten years of curing age( 2023)
;Ikmal Hakem A. Aziz ; ; ; ; ;Jitrin Chaiprapa ;Catleya Rojviriya ;Petrica Vizureanu ;Andrei Victor Sandu ; ;This paper elucidates the mechanical performance, microstructure, and porosity evolution of fly ash geopolymer after 10 years of curing age. Given their wide range of applications, understanding the microstructure of geopolymers is critical for their long-term use. The outcome of fly ash geopolymer on mechanical performance and microstructural characteristics was compared between 28 days of curing (FA28D) and after 10 years of curing age (FA10Y) at similar mixing designs. The results of this work reveal that the FA10Y has a beneficial effect on strength development and denser microstructure compared to FA28D. The total porosity of FA10Y was also lower than FA28D due to the anorthite formation resulting in the compacted matrix. After 10 years of curing age, the 3D pore distribution showed a considerable decrease in the range of 5–30 µm with the formation of isolated and intergranular holes.20 1
