Mechanical Properties of Composites with Geopolymer Matrices Reinforced by Basalt Fabric

Abstract:

The tensile and bending properties of composite materials with geopolymer matrix reinforced by layers of basalt plain weave fabric were investigated experimentally. We present the results of the quasi-static tensile tests and the quasi-static and cyclic three-point bending tests. The composite panels were made by hand laying with subsequent vacuuming. The plates were stayed in a compression press and left in a compressed state for a month. After 5 months the samples were made from the plates and subjected to tests. The material behaves as linear almost to the failure, which occurred at tensions of about 100 MPa. The elastic modulus is between 6000 and 7000 MPa.
