Abstract

Geopolymer concrete has been developed as a replacement for conventional concrete with other pozzolan materials, which have a high silicate alumina content. Fly ash is a material that contains a high silicate alumina of 22%. The high content of Al and Si increases the compressive strength of concrete. High-calcium fly ash is abundantly found in Indonesia. However, it has not been widely used for industry or research, and this is due to the fast hardening time of concrete. Therefore, it has the potential to be developed. High-quality concrete has a low cement water factor that causes low workability in concrete. Self-compacting geopolymer concrete (SCGC) has been developed as a high-quality concrete innovation with high workability. Concrete is produced by using gravel, sand, fly ash, alkaline activator, and water materials. This study used 14 Molar levels of NaOH. The variations used were 0%, 3%, 5%, and 7% superplasticizers (SP) made from polycarboxylate. This study used a dry mixing method to overcome the setting time on concrete. The results show that the workability that can be achieved is 645mm, and the compressive strength achieved is 41.7 Mpa

Abstract

Geopolymer Concrete (GC) is highly durable in corrosive environments, making it a viable material for repair. However, its initial compressive strength was below the 7 megapascals required at one-day age. Adding fine limestone (45 micrometer) can improve GC's density and early strength. This study explores the effects of adding 0 percent, 3 percent, 5 percent, and 7 percent limestone and 1 percent sucrose superplasticizer to GC 16M. The compressive strength was tested at 1, 3, 7, and 28 days, along with slump, permeability, and resistivity tests to assess the durability. The results show that adding 5 percent limestone yields the optimal GC performance for repairing corrosive environments. The compressive strengths were 15.96, 28, 43, and 67.14 megapascals at 1, 3, 7, and 28 days, with a slump of 120 millimeters. The permeability and resistivity results were 0.128 × 10^-16 square meters and 57.87 kiloohm-centimeter, indicating normal corrosion levels. These findings confirm that GC with 5 percent limestone meets the durability and strength requirements of repair materials in corrosive environments.
