This research aims to prepare one-part geopolymer by using the quartz rich marine clay available in Singapore. The higher quartz and lower kaolinite mineral (∼29%) in marine clay is not ideal for a precursor material in geopolymerization. Hence, a novel thermo-mechano-chemical activation process is...
