The main basic ingredients needed for the manufacture of this geopolymer material are materials that contain a lot of silica and aluminia elements. The 1st stage test was carried out to determine the geopolymer paste with the maximum compressive strength at the ratio of NaOH to Na2SiO3 of 1; 1.5; 2; 2.5. The second stage of testing was carried out using a geopolymer paste with the highest compressive strength, namely the ratio of NaOH to Na2SiO3 of 2.5 with a compressive strength of 22.56 MPa. Based on the results of the compressive strength test, the maximum compressive strength at the age of 28 days is 7.64 MPa. The results of the compressive strength of concrete are much lower than the compressive strength of the paste, it shows that the paste does not bind too much with the aggregate. This is evidenced by the results of the compressive strength of conventional concrete which is much higher than that of geopolymer concrete using the same aggregate. With the results of the maximum compressive strength at the age of 28 days is 29.51 MPa.
Beton geopolimer adalah beton yang tidak menggunakan semen portland sebagai binder. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui komposisi yang dihasilkan dari penambahan abu sekam padi terhadap abu terbang PLTU Buntoi sebagai pengganti semen, sehingga didapat kuat tekan beton geopolimer yang maksimal. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode eksperimen, yaitu dengan membuat benda uji pasta geopolimer ukuran 20 mm × 40 mm. Dengan variasi penambahan abu sekam padi (0%,10%, 20%, 30% dan 40%) dari berat abu terbang. Hasil kuat tekan pasta geopolimer dengan persentase penambahan abu sekam padi sebanyak 40% dan abu terbang 60% menghasilkan kuat tekan rata-rata terbesar yaitu 16,99 MPa. Hasil tersebut digunakan sebagai binder dalam pembuatan beton geopolimer. Kuat tekan rata-rata beton geopolimer berdasarkan umur pengujian 3, 7, 14 dan 28 hari, dengan kuat tekan berturut-turut adalah 0,96 MPa, 1,87 MPa, 1,59 MPa, 1,58 MPa. Hasil tersebut menunjukan bahwa kuat tekan beton geopolimer lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan kuat tekan pasta geopolimer. Kata Kunci: Abu sekam padi, abu terbang, geopolimer, komposisi, kuat tekan
