Experimental study of the mechanical properties and microstructure of geopolymer paste containing nano-silica from agricultural waste and crystalline admixtures

This study explored the influence of nano-silica and Crystalline Admixture (CAs) on the mechanical properties and microstructure of geopolymer pastes. Nano-silica and CAs was added to the mixture at 3%, 4% and 5% respectively by weight of fly ash. The bulk density, the yield stress of geopolymer pas...
