Microstructure and strength of blended FBC-PCC fly ash geopolymer containing gypsum as an additive
This study focused on the microstructure and strength of blended fluidized bed coal combustion fly ash (FBC-FA) and pulverized coal combustion fly ash (PCC-FA) geopolymers containing gypsum as an additive. The source materials consisted of 100% FBC-FA and a blend of 75% FBC-FA and 25% PCC-FA. Gypsum...
