{"product_id":"geopolymer-chemistry-and-applications-5th-ed","title":"Geopolymer Chemistry and Applications, 5th Ed","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat can be done about the major concerns of our Global Economy on high costs of energy, global warming, sustainable development, user-friendly processes, and green chemistry? Here is an important contribution to the mastering of these phenomena of the twenty first century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are two main purposes in preparing this book: it is an introduction to the subject of geopolymers for the newcomer to the ﬁeld, for students, and a reference for additional information. Background details on structure, properties, characterization, synthesis, chemistry applications are included. Each chapter is followed by a bibliography of the relevant published literature including patents. The industrial applications of geopolymers with engineering procedures and design of processes are also covered in this book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a textbook, a reference book instead of being a collection of scientific papers. The book holds: 680 pages, 28 chapters, 119 tables, 343 figures and pictures, 75 patents, 740 references, 905 authors cited in references.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten by the inventor and founder of geopolymer science, Geopolymer Chemistry and Applications covers:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e * -The mineral polymer concept: silicones and geopolymers\u003cbr\u003e * -Macromolecular structure of natural silicates and aluminosilicates\u003cbr\u003e * -Scientiﬁc Tools, X-rays, FTIR, NMR\u003cbr\u003e * -The synthesis of mineral geopolymers\u003cbr\u003e    * --Poly(siloxonate) and polysilicate, soluble silicate, Si: Al=1:0\u003cbr\u003e    * --Chemistry of (Na, K)-oligo-sialates: hydrous alumino-silicate gels and zeolites\u003cbr\u003e    * --Kaolinite \/ Hydrosodalite-based geopolymer, poly(sialate) Si: Al=1:1\u003cbr\u003e    * --Metakaolin MK-750-based geopolymer, poly(sialate-siloxo) Si: Al=2:1\u003cbr\u003e    * --Calcium-based geopolymer, (Ca, K, Na)-sialate, Si: Al=1, 2, 3\u003cbr\u003e    * --Rock-based geopolymer, poly(sialate-multisiloxo) 1\u003cbr\u003e    * --Silica-based geopolymer, sialate link and siloxo link in poly(siloxonate) Si: Al\u0026gt;5\u003cbr\u003e    * --Fly ash-based geopolymer\u003cbr\u003e    * --Ferro-sialate geopolymer\u003cbr\u003e    * --Phosphate-based geopolymer\u003cbr\u003e    * --Organic-mineral geopolymer\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e * -Properties: physical, chemical and long-term durability\u003cbr\u003e * -Applications\u003cbr\u003e    * --Quality controls\u003cbr\u003e    * --Development of user-friendly systems\u003cbr\u003e    * --How to quantify and develop formulas\u003cbr\u003e    * --Castable geopolymer, industrial and decorative applications\u003cbr\u003e    * --Geopolymer - ﬁber composites\u003cbr\u003e    * --Foamed geopolymer\u003cbr\u003e    * --Geopolymers in ceramic processing\u003cbr\u003e    * --Manufacture of geopolymer cement\u003cbr\u003e    * --Geopolymer concrete\u003cbr\u003e    * --Geopolymers in toxic and radioactive waste management.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The CuriosiTea Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43865635291199,"sku":"9782954453118","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/0619\/3727\/files\/9782954453118.jpg?v=1789244025","url":"https:\/\/curiositeabookshop.com\/products\/geopolymer-chemistry-and-applications-5th-ed","provider":"The CuriosiTea Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
