Webinar Spring 2016
This free webinar covers various aspects of the geopolymer science and applications. Yet, you will find a focus on geopolymer cement and concrete to celebrate its successful commercialization that raises a great interest all over the world.
Professor Joseph Davidovits spans a broad spectrum of valuable knowledge in this 2¼ hours video by reviewing the following topics:
- Geopolymer definitions.
- Real world and successful applications and commercialization.
- Heat and fire-resistant geopolymer.
- Why did it take 30 years to commercialize geopolymer cement?
- Alkali Activated Materials are not Polymers, so they cannot be used as synonyms for Geo-Polymers!
- The “good” geopolymer terminology and why using it opens its understanding.
- Principles of geopolymer technologies (it is first a real “polymer”).
- Fly ash-based geopolymer concrete: how to make a good one.
- The 6 basic rules in geopolymer processing.
- False CO2 emissions calculations.
