Abstract
Geopolymer materials in civil engineering
Incoming article date: 21.12.2024Geopolymers and alkali-activated materials are cement-free composites formulated by activating alumino-silicate materials, such as fly ash, meta-kaolin, and silica fume, and calcium-rich materials. The Geopolymer Materials Market grew from USD 12.48 billion in 2023 to USD 15.69 billion in 2024. It is expected to continue growing at a CAGR of 29.46%, reaching USD 76.07 billion by 2030. Today we found about 750 patents of USA, China, Japan and other countries. The selected last year patents have emerged on the usage of geopolymeric mortars for 3D printing, grouting, sewage lining, and wastewater treatment.
