Layered kaolin structure only allows very little, if any, substitution of other elements. Therefore, mechanical activation is an alternative way to break the kaolin structure to become finer to change the morphological features to smoother surface, and to cause edge distortion to the kaolin particles. Rounded particles also can be produced using this technique. This mechanically-activated kaolin was used to produce mechanically-activated kaolin geopolymers in this study. From the results, compressive strength increased as mechanical activation time increased and the compressive strength increased with the ageing day. The SEM micrograph showed that the mechanically-activated kaolin geopolymers have denser structure which complies with the compressive strength measured. 2014-02-19T03:35:27Z 2014-02-19T03:35:27Z 2012-12 Article Advanced Materials Research, vol.626, 2012, pages 926-930 1022-6680 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/32016 http://www.scientific.net/AMR.626.926 en Trans Tech Publications
