Additive manufacturing of alkali-activated materials currently attracts a lot of attention, because of the possibility to produce customized high-performance elements for a range of applications, potentially being more resource-efficient than conventionally produced parts. Here, we describe a new additive manufacturing process for alkali-activated materials that is based on selective laser-heating of lithium aluminate/microsilica slurries. The new process-material combination allows to manufacture elements with complex geometries at high building rates and high accuracy. The process is versatile and transferrable to structures of sizes differing by orders of magnitude. The mechanical strength of the obtained materials was in the range of values reported for conventional metakaolin-based geopolymers, and superior to what has been hitherto reported for alkali-activated materials produced by additive manufacturing. This mechanical performance was obtained despite the fact that the degree of reaction of the lithium aluminate and the microsilica was low, suggesting that significant reactions took place only at the surface of the microsilica particles.
Der kritische, Korrosion auslösende Chloridgehalt für die Beurteilung der Korrosions-beständigkeit von Betonstahl in Geopolymerbetonen ist von großer Bedeutung für die Dauerhaftigkeitsprognose für bewehrte Elemente aus solchen Materialien. Es sind kaum experimentelle Daten in der Fachliteratur vorhanden und die vorliegenden Werte unterscheiden sich zwischen den Studien erheblich. In diesem Projekt wurde der kritische, Korrosion auslösende Chloridgehalt für Betonstahl (BSt 500) in flugaschebasierten (Ca-armen) Geopolymermörtel für verschiedene Beaufschlagungskombinationen bestimmt: Chloridbeaufschlagung mit 1 M NaCl-Lösung; Auslaugen in entionisiertem Wasser und anschließende Chloridbeaufschlagung im 1 M NaCl-Lösung; Auslaugen in entionisiertem Wasser, Carbonatisierung in Luft bei 20 °C und natürlicher CO2 Konzentration und anschließende Chloridbeaufschlagung mit 1 M NaCl-Lösung. Für Referenz-Zwecke wurde zusätzlich der Korrosion auslösende Chloridgehalt für eine Portland-Zement Mischung bei Auslagerung in 1 M NaCl-Lösung bestimmt.
Corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete is one of the major deterioration mechanisms limiting the service life of reinforced concrete structures. While for conventional (Portland cement-based) concretes a great amount of experience exists in this regard, the factors that determine the onset of reinforcement corrosion in alkali-activated materials are incompletely understood yet. One aspect of corrosion protection is leaching and the accompanying changes of the concrete pore solution. In the present study, alkali-activated fly ash mortars with embedded carbon steel rebars were exposed to de-ionised water for periods up to 330 days, and the electrochemical response of the steel (free corrosion potential, polarisation resistance), the alteration of the mortar (ohmic resistance, mechanical strength, pore size distribution) as well as the pore solution composition were monitored. Although substantial alkali leaching was observed, the pH of the pore solution remained at values sufficient to protect the embedded steel from depassivation. The mortar did not exhibit indications of significant deterioration. Thus, the present results suggest that leaching is not critical for protection of steel reinforcement in alkali-activated fly ash mortars and concretes.

Corrosion of steel rebars in concrete presents one of the main deterioration mechanisms limiting service life of the reinforced structures. The corrosion is accompanied by an expansion of the corrosion products causing high pressures, concrete cracking and finally spalling of a cover layer. Critical chloride concentration, loss of alkalinity and modeling of the steel corrosion are in researchers' spotlight for decades, however reinforcement corrosion in alkali activated materials is insufficiently described and understood yet.
In this work, the steel reinforcement corrosion in alkali-activated fly ash mortars is investigated in terms of electrochemical behaviour of the reinforced mortars exposed to aggressive environments such as leaching, carbonation and chloride ingress. A selected geopolymer mixture based on hard coal fly ash activated with sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate solutions is used for the steel reinforcement-corrosion experiments. The formation of passive layer on the steel rebars is observed after approx. two weeks of hardening at laboratory temperature. However, alternative heat-treatment at 80°C for several hours leads to immediate formation of the passive layer as well as to a faster strength gain (80 MPa after 24h at 80°C). Chloride-induced corrosion, leaching and carbonation resistance of the alkali activated fly ash-based concrete is studied, where leaching in deionized water or carbonation under natural conditions (~0.04 % CO2) for 300 days did not lead to corrosion of the embedded steel. On the other hand, accelerated carbonation under 100 % CO2 atmosphere lead to depassivation within two weeks.
For the additive manufacturing of large components typically powder-based methods are used. A powder is deposited layer by layer by means of a recoater, then, the component structure is printed into each individual layer. We introduce here the new method of local laser drying, which is a suspension-based method specially developed for the manufacturing of large voluminous ceramic parts. The structure information is directly written into the freshly deposited layer of suspension by laser drying. Initially, the technology was developed for ceramic suspensions, however, first experiments with geopolymers reveal a high potential for this class of materials. Metakaolin, fly ash and lithium aluminate-based one-part geopolymers were used in first experiments. The local annealing of the geopolymer slurry results in a drying and crosslinking reaction and, thus, in a local consolidation of the material. First parts made are introduced and their properties are discussed.
