dc.description.abstractIn this study, the geopolymer mortar mixtures were manufactured by activating andesite stone cutting waste dust with sodium silicate. The sodium silicate content in the mixtures was determined to contain 6%, 8% and 10% Na2O by weight of waste andesite dust (WAD). The produced mixtures were subjected to thermal curing at three different temperatures (60 degrees C, 75 degrees C and 90 degrees C), and in two different periods (8 hours and 24 hours). Flexural strength (fs) and compressive strength (fc) tests of 1, 28 and 56 days were carried out on the specimens obtained from the geopolymer mortar mixtures. The effects of Na2O content, thermal curing temperature and time on the strength values of the geopolymer mortars were investigated. Moreover, the geopolymer mortar samples produced with 8 hours of thermal curing were exposed separately to 400 degrees C, 600 degrees C and 800 degrees C. The specimens, which were kept for 1 hour at 400 degrees C, 600 degrees C and 800 degrees C, were exposed to three different cooling conditions (slow-cooled in air, fast-cooled in air and water-cooled). The fs and fc tests were carried out on the cooled geopolymer mortars, and the effects of high temperatures and cooling conditions on the strength properties of the geopolymer mortars were evaluated. In addition, the changes in the microstructures were examined by performing XRD and SEM/EDAX analyses on the selected geopolymer mortars. The fs and fc values of the watercooled geopolymer mortars significantly decreased.
