The term "geopolymer" was coined by French chemist Joseph Davidovits in 1978. Examples of geopolymer cement used in construction can be found in Australia, Ireland, the United States, and Russia to name a few. For instance, in 2014 an entire airport in Brisbane, Australia was constructed with a concrete based on geopolymer binders.

Feb 27, 2017The optimum curing temperature of both geopolymer and class G cement leading to higher mechanical strength is between 55-60 C. Geopolymer shows higher compressive strength and Young's modulus values at elevated temperatures ( 36 C), whereas G cement possesses higher values at lower curing temperatures ( 36 C).

Jun 30, 2013The geopolymers form by reaction between a solid aluminosilicate and an aqueous alkali hydroxide solution. The reaction involves gelation and the product is an aluminosilicate comprised of silica and alumina tetrahedra linked in three dimensions. Engineering behavior is similar to that of hydrated Portland cement.

Similar to the sulfate aggression on geopolymer concrete mass, the dimension of geopolymer concrete is extremely low. This can be observed from geopolymer expansion which is lower than 0.015% much smaller than 5%; expansion value above which concrete is considered to not possess the ability to resist sulfate attack.

Indeed, by investigating the geopolymer concrete with 50% of aggregates, a higher strength value (~40 MPa) was still recorded than in the Portland counterpart. The authors attributed the best performance of the geopolymer mixes to the lowest capillary porosity than ordinary cement (3–5% in Portland concrete and 1–2% in geopolymer concrete).
