FLY ASH-MODIFIED GEOPOLYMER CONCRETE: AN EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH

Abstract

The development of Geo polymer Concrete is in the response for the need of “greener concrete” in order to reduce the emission of enormous amount of Carbon dioxide (CO2) from cement production, it causes serious environmental problem and induces global warming. Hence, it is necessary to cater the emission of CO2 by reducing the production and usage of cement. This problem can be reduced by replacing cement with an alternative material. In India 75 million tone of fly ash per year is produced. One of the best solutions to tackle this situation is using Class F fly ash instead of cement then the cementitious property is brought by the addition of activator solutions such as Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and Sodium silicate (Na2SiO3). Sulphonated naphthalene- formaldehyde (SNF) is used as super plasticizer to improve the workability of fresh concrete and fine aggregate is partially replaced by crusher sand.
