“Geopolymers” is a general term that describes a wide variety of inorganic and composite materials with limited restrictions on alumina and silica content. In the last decades, they have been also defined as “low-temperature aluminosilicate glasses”, “hydroceramics”, “inorganic polymer concrete” or “alkali bonded ceramics”. Recently, an updated definition has been proposed by the RILEM Technical Committee 224-AAM: “geopolymer materials are essential aluminosilicates activated with alkaline solution, excluding any other alkali-activated materials that should be classified apart” [1].

Abstract
“Geopolymers” is a general term that describes a wide variety of inorganic and composite materials with limited restrictions on alumina and silica content. In the last decades, they have been also defined as “low-temperature aluminosilicate glasses”, “hydroceramics”, “inorganic polymer concrete” or “alkali bonded ceramics”. Recently, an updated definition has been proposed by the RILEM Technical Committee 224-AAM: “geopolymer materials are essential aluminosilicates activated with alkaline solution, excluding any other alkali-activated materials that should be classified apart” [1].I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
