The strength increase in geopolymers exposed to temperature cycles is explained by frozen moisture in pores, with ice contributing to strength at lower temperatures.
“Xiong et al.’s explanation for the strength increase was that the moisture trapped in the pores was frozen, and since the strength of the ice was greater at lower temperatures, the ice in the pores contributed to the increase in the strength of the geopolymer [18].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
