【 摘 要 】

This study presents the properties of a recycled aggregate geopolymer mortar made with a blend of high-calcium fly ash (HCF) and low-calcium fly ash (LCF). An experimental study was divided into two series. In series I, an effort was made to produce a more durable HCF geopolymer by partially replacing a portion of the HCF with LCF. A mortar with a 50:50 weight blend of HCF and LCF provided a high early strength and showed excellent potential in an acidic environment. In series II, recycled aggregate was used in the LCF-blended HCF geopolymer mortar. The results showed that the compressive strength of the geopolymer mortar decreased with an increase in the recycled aggregate content. The results also indicated that application of the mortar made with recycled aggregate under aggressive conditions should be avoided. However, a mixture with 25% recycled aggregate showed a compressive strength similar to that of the control mixture containing 100% natural aggregate.
