Abstract

Materials called geopolymers are considered an alternative to common hydraulic binders, but they have certain limitations in many applications due to their brittleness. The use of fibers to reinforce geopolymers can bring the expected results by increasing their compressive strength. This paper presents the results of accelerated durability tests of geopolymers based on coal shale and fly ash reinforced with natural fibers (1% by mass). The results of testing the resistance of such composites to UV radiation, variable temperature cycles and the results of the thermal conductivity coefficient are presented.
