The geopolymeric structures of the products were investigated by 27Al and 29Si solid-state nuclear magnetic resonances with magic-angle spinning (MAS NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), differential scanning colorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The reaction of the Al-O sheet in meakaolinite with low-order polymerized Si-O tetrahedral units such as monomer of SiO4 yields three-dimensional structures with the Q3 Si-O tetrahedral structure and the coordination of Al(IV) in the Al-O tetrahedral structure. The geopolymers are essentially X-ray amorphous. The assays by 27Al and 29Si NMR, FTIR confirm that the active structure in the metakaolinite is the sheet of Al-O with three coordination states.展开更多

The calculated results indicate that at ordinary temperature, the reactions between dolomite, calcite, Ca2＋ and Mg2＋ in carbonatite and H4SiO4, tl3SiO4- and H2SiO42- in sodium silicate solution to form the cementitious products of hydrated calcium silicate or hydrated magnesium silicate all possibly happen; among these reactions, the reactions to form gyrolite （2CaO.3SiO2.2.5H2O） and serpentine （3MgO.2SiO2-2H20） are the most possible to occur. Further, the dissociation degree of dolomite and calcite and the activity of H3SiO4 , H2SiO42- and H4SiO4 ions are the key factors to influence the reactions.展开更多
