Alkali Activated

Porous alkali activated materials (AAM), can be obtained from waste glass powder and slag mixtures by alkali activation with NaOH solution. To obtain an adequate porous microstructure, the hardened AAM pastes were thermally treated at temperatures ranging between 900°C and 1000°C, for 60 or 30 minutes. Due to the intumescent behaviour specific for this type of materials, an important increase of the volume and porosity occurs during the thermal treatment. The partial substitution of waste glass powder with slag, determines the increase of compressive strength assessed before (up to 37 MPa) and after (around 10 MPa) thermal treatment; the increase of slag dosage also determines the increase of the activation temperature of the intumescent process (above 950°C). The high porosity and the specific microstructure (closed pores with various shapes and sizes) of these materials recommend them to be utilised as thermal and acoustical insulation materials.

Alkali Activated

Generally, alkali-activated materials (aka geopolymers) present good behaviour at high temperatures, but previous studies of geopolymers under elevated temperatures are, in most cases, focused on metakaolin or fly ash based geopolymers, making the information on geopolymers with mining waste mud almost inexistent. In this paper, were analysed geopolymers with different combinations of mining waste mud, waste glass powder, metakaolin and expanded cork in a total of 15 different mixtures using sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate as alkaline activators. Materials particle size used is under 500 μm for mining waste mud, waste glass powder. Some mixtures also included expanded granulated cork with particle size between 2 to 4 mm. Ten samples with 40 × 40 × 40 mm dimensions were used for the compression test, one sample for the TGA test, and one cube (100 × 100 × 60 mm) with a frustoconical hole (50 mm deep) and a 100 × 100 × 25 mm cover, for the cup test. All the mixtures were cured for 24h at a temperature of 60 °C before being demoulded, and left at room temperature until they reach 7 days to be tested. On the 7th day, of each mixture, samples were placed in a static furnace before the compression test submitted to a temperature of 800 °C during 2h. Then, the compression test was performed and the values before and after exposure to high temperatures were compared. Were recorded maximum gains of 724% and maximum losses of 100% in the compressive strength. This preliminary result shows the potentials of mining waste alkali-activated materials for elevated temperatures applications.

Alkali-activated mortar (AAM) is one of the products of waste glass recycling that exhibits promising potential for wide engineering applications such as the construction industry. In this study, recycled waste glass powder-based additives, namely, Silica Fume (SF) and Nano-SiO2 (NS), were investigated for their potential to enhance the mechanical properties (strength) and drying-shrinkage resistance of AAM. The results indicated that 5.0% and 1.5% were the optimum SF and NS dosages, respectively, for optimizing AAM performance in terms of the compressive strength, flexural strength, and drying-shrinkage resistance. A prediction model, based on backpropagation (BP) neural network analysis, was also satisfactorily formulated and preliminarily validated for predicting the drying shrinkage of AAM containing SF or NS.
