According to the testresults,compressivestrengthimproveswithincreasedcuringtime,temperature, rest time, and sodium hydroxide solution concentrationwhile decreasing with increased water to geopolymer solids by massand admixture dose. The workability of new geopolymer concrete isenhanced by the use of a naphthalene-based superplasticiser.
