Characterization of soils as potential raw materials for soil stabilization application using geopolymerization method
Open accessAbstract
Soft soil has been associated to many problems especially in engineering field. Continues research and studies are done to find other alternatives in soil stabilization that environmental friendly and economic. Geopolymerization is one of the developing fields that can fulfill those requirements. In this preliminary study, three samples of soil (Soil 1, 2 and 3) were examined to investigate their potential for geopolymerization method based on their characterization. X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope were conducted. From the results, the soils do have potential, however, further investigations need to be done after this study to evaluate whether the soils are suitable using geopolymerization method for soil stabilization.

As solid-to-liquid ratio rose, geopolymers sample became less homogeneous due to limited amount of alkali activator.
“As the solid-to-liquid ratio rose, the geopolymers sample became less homogeneous due to the limited amount of alkali activator [48,51,72,74,78,93,94,98].”

Using NaOH solution in geopolymer synthesis causes low strength development if the molarity used is too high or too low.
“The obstacle of using NaOH solution in the geopolymer synthesis is the low strength development if the molarity used is too high or too low [71,72,74,80,92,94].”

Crucial factors influencing properties of geopolymer include solid-to-liquid ratio, sodium hydroxide molarity, and sodium silicate/sodium hydroxide ratio.
“A few crucial factors influencing the properties of geopolymer so as to contribute to achieving a good mix of design and formulation of geopolymer include solid-to-liquid (S/L) ratio, sodium hydroxide molarity, and sodium silicate (Na2SiO3)/sodium hydroxide (NaOH) ratio [51,74,92,93,94].”

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.
