Literature Review on Durability Performance of Geo-polymer Concrete

Author(s) Dr. LAKKIREDDY SAI INDRASENA REDDY, Mr. KOPPULA RAMA KRISHNA REDDY
Country India
Abstract Geo-polymer concrete is produced from the geo-polymerization process, in which molecules
known as oligomers integrate to form geo-polymer networks with covalent bonding. Its production
expends less thermal energy and results in a smaller carbon footprint compared to Ordinary Portland
Cement (OPC) concrete. It requires only an alkaline activator to catalyze its aluminosilicate sources
such as metakaolin and fly ash, to yield geopolymer binder for the geopolymerization to take place.
Because of its eco-friendly technology and practical application, current research interest is mainly
concentrated on the endurance of geopolymer concrete to resist heat and chemical aggressions.
As such, it is pertinent for this review article to provide critical insight into the recent
progress in research on the durability of geopolymer concrete. One significant outcome of the review
is that the admixture of geopolymer concrete could be blended with additives such as micro-silica
and fibers such as polypropylene fibers, to enhance its durability. The review on the durability
aspects of geopolymer concrete showed that it had high compressive strength at an optimal elevated
temperature, low to medium chloride ion penetrability, and high resistance to acid attack and
abrasion. This makes geopolymer concrete a viable candidate to replace OPC concrete in the
construction industry.
Keywords geopolymer concrete; alkaline activator; aluminosilicate sources; durability; compressive strength; chloride ion penetrability; acid attack; abrasion.
