A study of concrete performance using treated kaolin as a partial replacement in cement / Mohd Shahmin Mohammad Shater

Concrete is widely used construction materials. However, the production of Portland cement releases significant amount of CO2 (carbon dioxide) and a greenhouse gas. 1 ton of Portland cement clinker production releases approximately 1 ton of CO2 and other gases. Therefore, the study of kaolin as a pa...

Kaolin was treated by using sulphuric acid, H2SO4 with different concentrations 3 M, 5M, 7M and 9M. Then, the concrete was designed at grade 30 of concrete. The compressive strength test and water absorption test had been done. From the findings, the 5 molar treated kaolin produced the highest compressive strength among the other sample. The optimum molarity of sulphuric acid, H2SO4 is 5 molar. The result of water absorption test shows that different molarity will give a different effect of absorption of water. 2019-01 Student Project NonPeerReviewed text en https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/39611/1/39611.pdf A study of concrete performance using treated kaolin as a partial replacement in cement / Mohd Shahmin Mohammad Shater.
