STUDY ON SOLID/LIQUID RATIO AND MICROSTRUCTURE PROPERTIES OF ALKALI-ACTIVATED METAKAOLIN-BASED GEOPOLYMER CONTAINED IN LCD WASTE GLASS Autori: Kang-Wei LoData aparitiei: Ianuarie / 2020 Revista: Environmental Engineering and Management Journal › Vol. 19 › Nr. 1 ISSN: 1843 - 3707 ![]() There are considerable environmental and health and safety concerns regarding liquid crystal display (LCD) waste glass because of the waste electrical and electronic equipment (e-waste) that is deposited in landfills. In current study, the effect of variation in LCD waste glass on the deconvoluted fractions of silicon centers of metakaolin geopolymers has been comprehensively investigated to discover the underlying mechanisms governing the performance. Solid/liquid ratio affects the kinetics of the exchange of silicate units between species during geopolymerization. Flexural strength is related to the degree of geopolymerization and the number of soluble aluminosilicates in the geopolymer system. The solid/liquid ratio was increased from 0.8 to 1.0, the weight loss of 10% geopolymer in the 230-400 °C decreased from 16.97% to 14.94% at 60-day of curing. Nevertheless, the weight loss from 600–750 °C increased from 0.55% to 0.85%. When the solid/liquid ratio was increased from 0.6 to 1.0, the fractions of Q4(3Al) (30.13%-35.07%) and Q4(2Al) (30.40%–35.13%) increased, whereas the fractions of Q4(4Al) (23.36%-22.57%) and Q4(1Al) (10.15%- |
