Inorganic polymers (geopolymers) with varying chemical compositions were subjected to a number of tests in an effort to demonstrate that varying their chemical composition, as well as curing conditions can allow researchers to create geopolymers that fit specific applications based on their microstructure, thermal conductivity, ...
Using the Transient Plane Source technique, various geopolymers, metakaolin-derived sodium (Na), sodium-potassium (NaK) and potassium (K), were tested to determine the effect of varying environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, on thermal conductivity. The results concluded that the thermal properties of the geopolymers derived ...
