Chemical and Mineralogical Characterizations of Different Kaolinitic Clays from Burkina Faso: Feasibility for the Synthesis of Geopolymer Binders

Chemical and Mineralogical Characterizations of Different Kaolinitic Clays from Burkina Faso: Feasibility for the Synthesis of Geopolymer Binders

Researchers are exploring eco-friendly alternatives to Portland cement, such as geopolymers, which require reactive aluminosilicate sources. This study evaluated the reactivity of six calcined clays (heated at 700 °C) in the presence of an alkaline solution. The calcined samples from kaolinite quarr...
