Effect of K/Al Molar Ratio on the Thermo-Mechanical Properties of Metakaolinite-Based Geopolymer Composites

Jan Kohout et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of K/Al ratio on the thermo-mechanical properties of geopolymer composites. The results showed that increasing K/Al ratio led to a decline in mechanical properties, except for a local maximum at a K/Al ratio equal to one. Additionally, it was found that for thermal applications above 600°C, it is better to use samples with lower K/Al ratios (0.55 or 0.70).
