Effect of Heat Exposure on Structural Integrity of Geopolymer Concrete Composites
Abstract: The research evaluates the thermal degradation effects of high temperatures on Geo Polymer Concrete Composite (GPCC) by examining alccofine concrete, concrete made with alccofine and porcelain waste aggregates. Knowing how GPCC behaves under high temperatures proves essential for protecting buildings during fires as well as industrial applications. Each mix design received composite concrete samples that underwent increased heating conditions from 100°C to 700°C at 200°C intervals. Post-heating, various parameters were …

Effectiveness of Concrete Retrofitted with FRP Wrapping Subjected to Higher Temperature
Abstract: This work aims to provide additional insight into the behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) laminates at high temperatures. The compressive properties of concrete coated in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) under elevated heat levels. The study addresses the important issue of assessing the performance of structural elements, specifically concrete columns, in the event of a fire. Recently, there has been increased interest in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials as a possible concrete …

A systematic Review on Laterite based geopolymer
Abstract: Laterite based geopolymer has been widely studied as a sustainable alternative to Portland cement in construction industry. However, its thermal performance is still a challenge due to the low thermal conductivity and low temperature resistance. In this paper, recent studies on the improvement of thermal performance of laterite based geopolymer using additives are reviewed. The additives studied include organic materials, metal oxides and natural fillers. The effect of these additives …

Electro Less Duplex Nickel Coating and Tribological Characterization Under Elevated Temperature
Abstract: Electroless Ni-P (EN) coatings had previously demonstrated their ability to improve the tribological properties of the underlying substantial. This is due to its high hardness, fatigue strength, and chemical resistance. Nevertheless, the EN coverings' effectiveness at high temperatures, as well as their heat resistance, have yet to be evaluated. The current work investigates the tribological properties, namely friction and wear, of EN coatings at increased temperatures (100 ºC, 200 ºC, …
