Geopolymer was prepared by geopolymerization of metakaolin. Metakaolin utilized from local clay from Kg. Sri Tawau, Sabah as the aluminosilicate source. This work studies the effect of barium hydroxide octahydrate on the setting mechanism of geopolymer in the making of geopolymers. The study focuse...
