Mechanical properties and electrical resistivity of multiwall carbon nanotubes incorporated into high calcium fly ash geopolymer

High calcium fly ash (HCF) is a pozzolan material and is available in large quantity in Thailand due to the existence of coal-based electrical power plants. It is used as a supplemental material to partially replace cement content in concrete as a movement toward concrete sustainability. In order to...
