Manufacturing parameters influencing fire resistance of geopolymers: A review

Geopolymers exhibit various unique properties and characteristics, including high compressive strength, high temperature stability, and low thermal conductivity. As a relatively new and perspective material, the behavior of geopolymers subjected to high temperatures is being intensively studied nowadays. This review summarizes the recent achievements in the development of geopolymer-based fire resistance materials. Technological parameters, which influence thermal behavior of geopolymer-based materials, are also discussed. Besides that, recent applications of geopolymers according to their composition are presented.
