1. Introduction 
    Geopolymer is the new cementatious binder material (Jumrat et al., 2011). The geopolymer
was developed by Davidovits in 1979. The synthesis of geopolymer takes place by silica alumina
sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate (Andini et al., 2007 and Nazari et al., 2011) and geopolymer
is mixed at room temperature and cured in ranging from room temperature to 95 degrees Celsius
for about 6 h to 4 days (Jumrat et al., 2011). The general chemical formula of geopolymeris
Mn[-(SiO2)z –AlO2]n.wH2O, where M is an alkali cation, z is a number and n is the degree of
polymerization. Geopolymeric Structures: poly (sialate) (-Si-) Al-O-), poly (sialate-siloxo)
(Si-O-Al-O-Si-O-) (Andini et al., 2007)

    The properties of geopolymers are quick compressive strength development and tendency to
drastically decrease the mobility of most heavy metal ions contained within the geopolymeric
structure (Topcu and Toprak, 2011). The immobilization and solidification of geopolymerization
by metal ions are taken into the geopolymer network, metal ions are bound into the structure for
charge balancing roles and a precipitate containing heavy metals is physically encapsulated (Zheng
et al., 2010). The highest volume engineering material in use today is Ordinary Portland Cement
(OPC), but Ordinary Portland Cement production contributes 5% of anthropogenic carbon dioxide
emission (Tailby and Mackenzia, 2010). Silica wastes are obtained from the depolymerization
process of silicone compound recycling, which account for 300-400 tons per year for the world
(Sresthaolarn and Chawakitchareon, 2011).       Treatment costs of waste disposal and wastes
management are expensive, therefore studies are encouraged to utilize used and waste materials,
such as silica waste, as part of a mixture of raw materials that can be used productively and
consequentially reduce waste pollution. The silica waste yielded characteristics similar to Silica
Fume (Sresthaolarn and Chawakitchareon, 2011). The study aims to observe the different mix
ratios of raw materials that conform as a mixture of geopolymer mortar, in order to obtain the
optimal chemical composition and quality for mortar production.

2. Methodology   

2.1 Materials 
    Silica waste and pure alumina were used as starting materials. Sodium hydroxide solution of
10 M concentration was prepared by dissolving NaOH pellets in distilled water. The study used
sodium silicate solution with composition of 8.9 wt. % Na2O, 28.7 wt. % SiO2, and 62.5 wt. %
H2O. The sand used for the experiment was washed with water, then dried at temperatures ranging
from 103 to 105 degrees Celsius. The sand was then mixed with geopolymer mortar with a fine
aggregate ratio of 1 to 2.75. The percentage of sand retained on sieve No. 20 was 15% and sieve
No. 30 was 5% (ASTM C778-06).

2.2 Sample preparation 
    The basic physical and chemical properties of silica waste were analyzed, with pH specific
gravity (ASTM C128-07a). The mix design of the geopolymer mortar was prepared for two kinds
of binder material (silica waste and pure alumina), which was then compared to the cement mortar
controls. The mix design, using the silica waste: pure alumina = 40:20 and 46.7:23.3 by weight, and
binder to sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution ratio = A (60:20:20) and B (70:10:20) by
weight.

2.3 Leaching tests of heavy metals 
    Heavy metal leaching test was performed using the Waste Extraction Test (WET) in
accordance to the Ministry of Industry guidance for disposal of waste or used materials established
in 2005 (Ministry of Industry Thailand, 2005). The leachate was analyzed for heavy metals using
the inductively coupled plasma (ICP).

2.4 Analysis of size distribution for the mixed materials 
    Analysis of mixed size distribution for the silica waste was done by Sieve Analysis in
accordance with ASTM C136 – 06. The Sieve boxes were sorted by size from larger sizes on the
top to the lower sizes at the bottom. The material was then shaken passing the sieve boxes to obtain
the different material sizes, which were 100 Mesh, 200 Mesh and 325 Mesh (ASTM C 136-06).

2.5 Analysis of chemical composition of materials 
      We analyzed the chemical composition of materials (Silica Waste) by X-ray fluorescence
(XRF) and micro structural analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

2.6       Study  of  optimum  conditions  for  geopolymer  mortar  production  with 
          silica waste compared to the cement mortar controls   
      Various proportions of material are mixed with binder to sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate
solution ratio. Each cubic sample was 5 x 5 x 5 cm (total 5 sample cubes for each experimental
mixture). The geopolymer mortar was cured at 60 degrees Celsius for 24 hours. Compressive
strength of geopolymer mortar was tested at 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days. The compressive
strength of cement mortar was at 180 ksc. The samples were measured for unit weight in
accordance to ASTM C109/c 109M-07[12] by weighing the sample, then dividing the volume of
the cube specimens. Investigation of the compressive strength was used as the basis for the
decision for the experimental samples with different ratios and varying mix design of binder to
sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution.

2.7       Comparison of heavy metal leaching test   
      The samples were then tested using the Waste Extraction Test (WET) in accordance to the
Ministry of Industry Act 2005 (Ministry of Industry Thailand, 2005). The heavy metals were
analyzed using the inductively coupled plasma (ICP).

3.2 Leaching tests of heavy metals 
    The analysis of heavy metal in leachate obtained from WET reported chromium 1.702 mg/l,
lead, copper and zinc less than 0.1 mg/l. The concentrations of all heavy metals were within the
standard set by the Ministry of Industry,Thailand. Therefore, it is possible to utilize silica waste
for geopolymer mortar production (Table 1).


3.3 The size distribution for the mixed materials 
    The average particles size of silica waste was 288.133 µm (Sresthaolarn and
Chawakitchareon, 2011). Silica waste was grounded in a tube mill until 90% of the particles size
smaller than 65 µm. It was no need to process pure alumina as 90% of the particles sizes smaller
than 149 µm (Figure 2 and Table 2). To improve the quality of silica waste, particles remaining
on sieve No. 325 (aperture of the mesh 45 microns) should not less than 5 percent by weight
(ASTM C 618-08).


3.4 The chemical composition of materials 
    The chemical characteristics of silica waste contains an average of 71.3 percent of silicon
dioxide.   Silica was main structure in geopolymer (Andini et al., 2007).                The chemical
composition was analyzed by X-ray fluorescence: XRF. The chemical composition of materials
used in the experiment compared to different geopolymer material as shown in Table 3.

3.5 The  optimum  conditions  for  geopolymer  mortar  production  with  silica 
      waste compared to the cement mortar controls   
    The optimum conditions of geopolymer mortar has binder – silica waste: pure alumina to
sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution ratio = B (70:10:20) by weight. The samples were
tested for the compressive strength at 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days (Figure 3). The results
indicated that ratio A (60:20:20) passed the compressive strength standard at 180 ksc on 3 day,
increased in ranking from compressive strange on 1 to 56 days and decreased on 90 days. The
sample of ratio B (70:10:20) passed the compressive strength standard at 180 ksc on 1 day, increase
in ranking from compressive strength on 1 to 56 days and decrease on 90 days.




   Figure 3: The compressive strength of geopolymer mortar at 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days.

    The cement mortar control passed the compressive strength standard at 180 ksc on 14 days,
and the strength kept on increasing during 90 days. The compressive strengths were swiftly
increase during 28 days. Many researchers report the highest compressive strength development
on day 28, and compressive strength tends to increase slowly after 90 days.               Because
aluminosilicate geopolymers gain strength more rapidly than Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and
their ultimate strength can be higher (Klabprasit et al., 2008). There is no Portland cement
involved in this cementitious material. The highest compressive strength of the geopolymer
mortar ratio A (60:20:20) and ratio B (70:10:20) obtained an average compressive strength of 259
and 312 ksc at 56 days, respectively. It was found that the compressive strengths depend on
binder and excellent bonding between the binder sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate (Tailby
and Mackenzia, 2010 and Sinsiri et al., 2006). The compressive strengths of geopolymer mortar

are compared to ready mix concrete mortar (with 10% silica waste addition) shown in Figure 4
(Sresthaolarn and Chawakitchareon, 2011). The results indicated that the compressive strength of
geopolymer mortar was more than that of mortar using silica waste replacing 10 percent of cement.
This result is also supported by the research of Tailby, J. (Tailby and Mackenzia, 2010).
Therefore the microscopic examination by electron scanning microscope at 28 days showed that
the finer the particle size of the silica waste, the denser the microstructure which confirms by the
compressive strength tests shown in Figures 5-7. The microscopic examination by electron
scanning microscope at 28 days for the speciment using silica waste replacing 10 percent of cement
by weight is shown in Figure 8.

    The chemical characteristics of silica waste contained silicon dioxide 71.3 % which similar to
pozzolanic material. The optimum conditions of geopolymer mortar which have binder (silica
waste: pure alumina) to sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution ratio = B (70:10:20) by
weight yielded the highest compressive strength equals to 312 ksc at 56 days. The results was
obtained from Waste Extraction Test of silica waste, A(60:20:20) and B(70:10:20 ) indicated that
the leachate contains heavy metals, which include lead, copper, zinc and chromium, within the

  • 2. 1. Introduction  Geopolymer is the new cementatious binder material (Jumrat et al., 2011). The geopolymer was developed by Davidovits in 1979. The synthesis of geopolymer takes place by silica alumina sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate (Andini et al., 2007 and Nazari et al., 2011) and geopolymer is mixed at room temperature and cured in ranging from room temperature to 95 degrees Celsius for about 6 h to 4 days (Jumrat et al., 2011). The general chemical formula of geopolymeris Mn[-(SiO2)z –AlO2]n.wH2O, where M is an alkali cation, z is a number and n is the degree of polymerization. Geopolymeric Structures: poly (sialate) (-Si-) Al-O-), poly (sialate-siloxo) (Si-O-Al-O-Si-O-) (Andini et al., 2007) NaOH, KOH (Si2O5, Al2O2) + nH2O n(OH)3-Si-O-Al-(OH)3 NaOH, KOH n(OH)3-Si-O-Al-(OH)3 (Na, K)(Si-O-Al-O)n (Zheng et al., 2010) O O The properties of geopolymers are quick compressive strength development and tendency to drastically decrease the mobility of most heavy metal ions contained within the geopolymeric structure (Topcu and Toprak, 2011). The immobilization and solidification of geopolymerization by metal ions are taken into the geopolymer network, metal ions are bound into the structure for charge balancing roles and a precipitate containing heavy metals is physically encapsulated (Zheng et al., 2010). The highest volume engineering material in use today is Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), but Ordinary Portland Cement production contributes 5% of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emission (Tailby and Mackenzia, 2010). Silica wastes are obtained from the depolymerization process of silicone compound recycling, which account for 300-400 tons per year for the world (Sresthaolarn and Chawakitchareon, 2011). Treatment costs of waste disposal and wastes management are expensive, therefore studies are encouraged to utilize used and waste materials, such as silica waste, as part of a mixture of raw materials that can be used productively and consequentially reduce waste pollution. The silica waste yielded characteristics similar to Silica Fume (Sresthaolarn and Chawakitchareon, 2011). The study aims to observe the different mix ratios of raw materials that conform as a mixture of geopolymer mortar, in order to obtain the optimal chemical composition and quality for mortar production. 4 Petchporn Chawakitchareon, and Chalisa Veesommai
  • 3. 2. Methodology    2.1 Materials  Silica waste and pure alumina were used as starting materials. Sodium hydroxide solution of 10 M concentration was prepared by dissolving NaOH pellets in distilled water. The study used sodium silicate solution with composition of 8.9 wt. % Na2O, 28.7 wt. % SiO2, and 62.5 wt. % H2O. The sand used for the experiment was washed with water, then dried at temperatures ranging from 103 to 105 degrees Celsius. The sand was then mixed with geopolymer mortar with a fine aggregate ratio of 1 to 2.75. The percentage of sand retained on sieve No. 20 was 15% and sieve No. 30 was 5% (ASTM C778-06). 2.2 Sample preparation  The basic physical and chemical properties of silica waste were analyzed, with pH specific gravity (ASTM C128-07a). The mix design of the geopolymer mortar was prepared for two kinds of binder material (silica waste and pure alumina), which was then compared to the cement mortar controls. The mix design, using the silica waste: pure alumina = 40:20 and 46.7:23.3 by weight, and binder to sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution ratio = A (60:20:20) and B (70:10:20) by weight. 2.3 Leaching tests of heavy metals  Heavy metal leaching test was performed using the Waste Extraction Test (WET) in accordance to the Ministry of Industry guidance for disposal of waste or used materials established in 2005 (Ministry of Industry Thailand, 2005). The leachate was analyzed for heavy metals using the inductively coupled plasma (ICP). 2.4 Analysis of size distribution for the mixed materials  Analysis of mixed size distribution for the silica waste was done by Sieve Analysis in accordance with ASTM C136 – 06. The Sieve boxes were sorted by size from larger sizes on the top to the lower sizes at the bottom. The material was then shaken passing the sieve boxes to obtain the different material sizes, which were 100 Mesh, 200 Mesh and 325 Mesh (ASTM C 136-06). *Corresponding author (P.Chawakitchareon).

  • 4. 2.5 Analysis of chemical composition of materials  We analyzed the chemical composition of materials (Silica Waste) by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and micro structural analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). 2.6 Study  of  optimum  conditions  for  geopolymer  mortar  production  with  silica waste compared to the cement mortar controls    Various proportions of material are mixed with binder to sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution ratio. Each cubic sample was 5 x 5 x 5 cm (total 5 sample cubes for each experimental mixture). The geopolymer mortar was cured at 60 degrees Celsius for 24 hours. Compressive strength of geopolymer mortar was tested at 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days. The compressive strength of cement mortar was at 180 ksc. The samples were measured for unit weight in accordance to ASTM C109/c 109M-07[12] by weighing the sample, then dividing the volume of the cube specimens. Investigation of the compressive strength was used as the basis for the decision for the experimental samples with different ratios and varying mix design of binder to sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution. 2.7 Comparison of heavy metal leaching test    The samples were then tested using the Waste Extraction Test (WET) in accordance to the Ministry of Industry Act 2005 (Ministry of Industry Thailand, 2005). The heavy metals were analyzed using the inductively coupled plasma (ICP). Figure 1: XRD patterns of silica waste. 6 Petchporn Chawakitchareon, and Chalisa Veesommai

  • 6. 3.2 Leaching tests of heavy metals  The analysis of heavy metal in leachate obtained from WET reported chromium 1.702 mg/l, lead, copper and zinc less than 0.1 mg/l. The concentrations of all heavy metals were within the standard set by the Ministry of Industry,Thailand. Therefore, it is possible to utilize silica waste for geopolymer mortar production (Table 1). 3.3 The size distribution for the mixed materials  The average particles size of silica waste was 288.133 µm (Sresthaolarn and Chawakitchareon, 2011). Silica waste was grounded in a tube mill until 90% of the particles size smaller than 65 µm. It was no need to process pure alumina as 90% of the particles sizes smaller than 149 µm (Figure 2 and Table 2). To improve the quality of silica waste, particles remaining on sieve No. 325 (aperture of the mesh 45 microns) should not less than 5 percent by weight (ASTM C 618-08). 3.4 The chemical composition of materials  The chemical characteristics of silica waste contains an average of 71.3 percent of silicon dioxide. Silica was main structure in geopolymer (Andini et al., 2007). The chemical composition was analyzed by X-ray fluorescence: XRF. The chemical composition of materials used in the experiment compared to different geopolymer material as shown in Table 3.

  • 7. 3.5 The  optimum  conditions  for  geopolymer  mortar  production  with  silica  waste compared to the cement mortar controls    The optimum conditions of geopolymer mortar has binder – silica waste: pure alumina to sodium hydroxide to sodium silicate solution ratio = B (70:10:20) by weight. The samples were tested for the compressive strength at 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days (Figure 3). The results indicated that ratio A (60:20:20) passed the compressive strength standard at 180 ksc on 3 day, increased in ranking from compressive strange on 1 to 56 days and decreased on 90 days. The sample of ratio B (70:10:20) passed the compressive strength standard at 180 ksc on 1 day, increase in ranking from compressive strength on 1 to 56 days and decrease on 90 days. Figure 3: The compressive strength of geopolymer mortar at 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days. The cement mortar control passed the compressive strength standard at 180 ksc on 14 days, and the strength kept on increasing during 90 days. The compressive strengths were swiftly increase during 28 days. Many researchers report the highest compressive strength development on day 28, and compressive strength tends to increase slowly after 90 days. Because aluminosilicate geopolymers gain strength more rapidly than Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and their ultimate strength can be higher (Klabprasit et al., 2008). There is no Portland cement involved in this cementitious material. The highest compressive strength of the geopolymer mortar ratio A (60:20:20) and ratio B (70:10:20) obtained an average compressive strength of 259 and 312 ksc at 56 days, respectively. It was found that the compressive strengths depend on binder and excellent bonding between the binder sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate (Tailby and Mackenzia, 2010 and Sinsiri et al., 2006).

The results indicated that the compressive strength of geopolymer mortar was more than that of mortar using silica waste replacing 10 percent of cement. This result is also supported by the research of Tailby, J. (Tailby and Mackenzia, 2010). Therefore the microscopic examination by electron scanning microscope at 28 days showed that the finer the particle size of the silica waste, the denser the microstructure which confirms by the compressive strength tests shown in Figures 5-7. The microscopic examination by electron scanning microscope at 28 days for the speciment using silica waste replacing 10 percent of cement by weight is shown in Figure 8.
