Properties of binary and ternary blended cement mortars containing palm oil fuel ash and metakaolin

This paper has investigated the properties of mortars made from binary and ternary blends of metakaolin (MK), palm oil fuel ash (POFA), and ordinary Portland cement (OPC). A total of 17 different mortar mixtures were produced. The OPC in the mixtures was partially replaced by MK, POFA, or a combinat...
