This article reports a study of thermal stability of properties upon firing at 800-1200 degrees C of geopolymer materials prepared using class F fly ash and Na and K alkaline activators. Compressive strength and shrinkage measurements, XRD, SEM (BEI), TGA and MIP were utilised in these studies. The materials were prepared at water/binder ratios in a range of 0.09-0.35, using compaction pressures up to 10 MPa and curing temperatures 80 and 100 degrees C. Thermal stability of the studied geopolymer materials was rather low. In the samples prepared using sodium-containing activators rapid deterioration of strength at 800 degrees C was observed, which was connected to a dramatic increase of the average pore size. Initially amorphous structures were replaced by the crystalline Na-feldspars. In materials prepared using fly ash and potassium silicate compressive strength was significantly increased on heating, deterioration of strength started at 1000 degrees C. After firing these materials remained amorphous with reduced average pore size and significantly increased compressive strength. Compaction at 1-10 MPa reduced shrinkage on firing in all materials. Geopolymer materials prepared using class F fly ash and alkaline activators showed high shrinkage as well as large changes in compressive strength with increasing fired temperature in the range of 800-1200 degrees C. Thus the materials were found unsuitable for refractory insulation applications. (C) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
