Environment friendly composite construction materials
Abstract
Disclosed are a system, a method and/or composition of environment friendly composite construction material. In one aspect, a method includes providing a mixture of a pozzolanic material and/or a kaolin clay with an activator solution to form an alumino-silicate cementitious material through a resulting geo-polymerization process. The alumino-silicate cementitious material is in the form of a paste. The method also includes processing the alumino-silicate cementitious material to transform the alumino-silicate cementitious material that is in the form of the paste to a form of a powder of the alumino-silicate cementitious material. The method further includes mixing the alumino-silicate cementitious material which is in the form of the powder with water to control a workability of the alumino-silicate cementitious material. Furthermore the method includes combining a mixture of the alumino-silicate cementitious material and water with a coarse aggregate, a fine aggregate and/or a plasticizer to form a composite construction material.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
