Quantification of the Extent of Reaction of Metakaolin-Based Geopolymers using X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Energy-Dispersive Spectroscopy

Quantification of the Extent of Reaction of Metakaolin-Based Geopolymers using X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Energy-Dispersive Spectroscopy

This study presents four independent methods to determine the fraction of metakaolin dissolution in geopolymers. Two quantitative X-ray diffraction (XRD) results agreed with two independent techniques using scanning electron microscopy. The fraction of the metakaolin consumed varied from 10(8) to 75...
