Abstract The term Geopolymer was introduced to represent the mineral polymers resulting from geochemistry. The process involves a chemical reaction under highly alkaline conditions on Si-Al minerals, yielding polymeric Si-O-Al-O bonds in amorphous form. The actual compressive strength of the concrete depends on various parameters such as the ratio of the activator solution to fly ash, molarity of the alkaline solution, ratio of the activator chemicals, curing temperature etc. In recent years,...
ABSTRACT Biomarkers or geochemical fossils are organic molecules that are present in petroleum and also in plants and animals. These biomarkers can be correlated back along the above pathway to identify source beds, correlate oil families and make interpretations about depositional environments andpost-depositional histories. To describe a sample chemically meansamassing the largest amount of data possible. The�...
