Uso de fibras de sisal em traços de geopolímeros à base de filito com ativação ácida

Since the earliest uses of binding materials in antiquity, as was the case in Roman civilizations, humanity has been enjoying new technologies and seeking to improve processes that will meet its evolving needs. This evolutionary process culminated in the development of Portland cement, a milestone in the history of civil construction. However, as society enters the modern era, it has become increasingly evident that large-scale production of Portland cement has a significant impact on the environment, due to intense energy demand and the release of large quantities of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. In the search for alternatives to Portland cement, various research studies have been developed on new materials in recent years, with geopolymers standing out. Furthermore, aiming to further improve these characteristics, the use of fibers can be promising in the study of these materials. This work aims to evaluate the influence of the incorporation of sisal fibers in the production of silicoaluminophosphate geopolymers, regarding mechanical compression strength.
