This invention belongs to the technical field of industrial
solid waste
resource utilization and novel inorganic cementitious materials. It discloses an alkaline
slag-based
geopolymer and its preparation method, with the core being the synthesis and application of a special composite activator. The special composite activator uses industrial by-products as the main
raw material and is synthesized through modification, compounding, and low-temperature
calcination processes. This overcomes the technical defects of traditional activators, such as low activation efficiency, slow strength development of geopolymers, high
brittleness, and high cost. It can efficiently activate the activity of
silicon-aluminum components in alkaline
slag, promoting the full progress of the geopolymerization reaction. The alkaline
slag-based
geopolymer of this invention uses alkaline slag as the main
raw material (with a dosage of up to 60%-85%), supplemented with appropriate amounts of
silicon-aluminum admixtures, a special composite activator, and a modifier. It is prepared through pretreatment, batching, stirring, molding, and curing steps. Its 28-day
compressive strength can reach 40-85 MPa, and its
flexural strength can reach 5-12 MPa. It also possesses excellent
water resistance,
corrosion resistance, and freeze resistance. Furthermore, the preparation process has low
energy consumption and no harmful
gas emissions, realizing the large-scale
resource utilization of alkaline slag. This invention also discloses in detail the synthesis process of special composite activators, which is simple, highly controllable, and has low production costs. It is easy to scale up industrial production and solves the problems of imperfect and limited application of existing alkaline residue base
polymer activation systems. It has environmental, economic and
social benefits.
