State whether the following is true or false.
A geopolymer binder contains no Portland clinker.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.True only at large scales
  • D.False only at small scales

Answer: A

The binding phase is formed by alkali activation of an aluminosilicate rather than by clinker hydration. This is what allows the very large emission saving claimed for such systems, since no limestone is calcined. The activator itself carries an emission burden that must be counted.
