Abstract

The chapter delves into the multifaceted effects of metakaolin (MK) on geopolymers, focusing on its influence on workability, setting time, density, compressive strength, and other mechanical properties. It examines the varying impacts of MK on different precursors such as slag, fly ash, and rice husk ash. The study also highlights the discrepancies in the literature regarding MK's effect on compressive strength and offers insights into the optimal MK ratios for enhancing various properties. Additionally, it discusses the benefits of MK on properties like sulphate resistance and acid resistance, while noting the need for further research on less-studied properties. The chapter concludes with recommendations for future research directions to address the current gaps in knowledge.
