Properties and reaction mechanism of phosphoric acid activated metakaolin geopolymer at varied curing temperatures

Reaction mechanism of phosphoric activated metakaolin is studied by techniques of calorimetry, ICP-OES, FTIR and NMR taking curing temperature and [H{sub 3}PO{sub 4}] as variables. A two-stage curing method including pre-curing at 40 °C for 24 h and second curing at 60/80 °C for another 24 h effectively mitigates thermal-cracking of the obtained silico-aluminate phosphate (SAP) samples, whose maximum compressive strength reaches 120 MPa. Dealumination of metakaolin in H{sub 3}PO{sub 4} solution produces low aluminate-containing silicate units and subsequently condensation of silicate tetrahedrons occurs. Higher temperature and H{sub 3}PO{sub 4} concentration accelerate the two processes. After complete reaction, A{sub VI} structure from metakaolin disappears and the dissolved Al preferably forms Al{sub VI}-O-P units. During reaction, metastable P-O-P intermediate appears in SAPs with higher P/Al ratio and finally transforms into Al-O-P structure upon PO{sub 4}{sup 3−} consumption. Phosphate units as P(OAl){sub x}(H{sub 2}O){sub 4-x} are connected with Si or Al structure units. Major structural units of the SAPs include Al-O-P, Si-O-P, Si-O-Si, and Si-O-Al.
