This work aims to reveal the effects of silica fume on properties of fly ash based geopolymer under thermal cycles. Geopolymer specimens were prepared by alkali activation of fly ash, which was partially replaced by silica fume at levels ranging from 0% to 30% with an interval of 10%, by mass. Microstructure, residual strength and mass loss of fly ash based geopolymer blended with silica fume before and after exposed to 7, 28 and 56 heat-cooling thermal cycles at different target temperatures of 200 C-o, 400 C-o and 800 C-o were assessed and compared. The experimental results reveal that silica fume addition enhances strength development in geopolymer. Under thermal cycles, the compressive strength of geopolymer decreases, and the compressive strength loss, as well as the mass loss, increases with increasing target temperature. The strength loss is the same regardless of silica fume content after thermal cycles. Microstructure analysis uncovers that pore structure of geopolymer degrades after thermal cycles. The pores of geopolymer are refined by the addition of silica fume. The incorporation of silica fume optimizes the microstructure and improves the thermal resistance of geopolymer. Silica fume increases the strength of the geopolymer and even though the strength loss is the same, the strength after heat cycle exposure is still good.(C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
