Importance of rheology in the prediction of structural transition phenomena in geopolymer matrices loaded with phosphogypsum

摘要

Through a purely experimental approach, we proceed here to the description of the rheological behavior of the geopolymer matrices in the fresh state according to one or other of the parameters characterizing their formulation. This consolidates the different physicochemical techniques usually used for their characterization. This comes to allow us especially the definition of drafts for the implementation of empirical laws ensuring a better follow-up in the elaboration of these materials or even more optimization in their formulation. This description also allows us to follow the structural transition phenomena from the fresh state to the hardened state. We are particularly interested in demonstrating the impact of the addition of Phosphogypsum on the rheological behavior of geopolymers or on their kinetics of setting.
