• Sulfuric acid resistance of blended ash geopolymer concrete (2013, background): “In alkali-activated materials only based on slag or fly ash, this vibration band had usually been identified between 950 and 1100 cm , and it was typically associated with the binding gels (C–(A)–S–H for slag and N–A–S–H for fly ash), with a lower wavenumber indicating a depolymerized or more highly”
• Durability of alkali-activated binders: A clear advantage over Portland cement or an unproven issue? (2012, result): “Research works [6–8] carried out so far in the development of alkali-activated cements showed that much has already been investigated and also that an environmental friendly alternative to Portland cement is rising.”
• Gel nanostructure in alkali-activated binders based on slag and fly ash, and effects of accelerated (2013, background): “The chemistry and structural development of alkali-activated fly ash is quite different from that of alkali-activated slag or conventional Portland cement-based binders, which is associated with the differences in the levels of calcium in these binders [14,15].”
• A physico-chemical basis for novel cementitious binders (2011, methodology): “In a comparison of alkali-activated blast furnace slags (BFS) and metakaolins (MK), Li [44] addresses both composition and glass content as measures of reactivity and, based on [45] concludes that in the case of BFS, glass content, although important, gives a poor correlation with reactivity.”
• Development of an eco-friendly Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) with efficient cement and mineral admixtures uses (2015, background): “The main hydrate of cement and fly-ash, calcium silicate hydrate (C– S–H), adopts two distinct morphologies: a low density C–S–H at the surface of cement and FA particles and a high density C–S–H deeper into the cement and FA particles [59,60].”
