Abstract:Experimental investigations were conducted to assess the impact of factors such as relative humidity (RH%) and the H2O molarity of waterglass on the efflorescence behavior of geopolymer composites. Samples with sodium (Na) and potassium (K) bases were prepared, having varying waterglass molarities (M) (at 11 and 13 moles of water). These samples were categorized into three groups exposed to different average RH ranges: (i) 0%–70% RH, (ii) 70%–90% RH, and (iii) 90%–100% RH. This study analyzed the occurrence of… Show more
