Abstract

The combination of a calcined clay with an alkali silicate or hydroxide solution has been identified since the 1920s to yield potentially useful materials. More recently these have become termed ‘geopolymers’, and have been popularised under that name. This paper briefly summarises some of the earlier history of alkali-calcined clay binders and related materials including synthetic zeolites, exploring some of the reasons underlying the more recent broadening of interest in this research field, and identifying some of the future opportunities that arise through the use of these materials. These cements may particularly be capable of offering very good technical performance and cost-effectiveness in a variety of applications, with an environmental emissions footprint lower than that of competing materials.
