Abstract

Alkali activation for producing alkali-activated materials is noted as a complex due to involving several reactions. due to complexity of the reactions, various techniques have been applied by past researches on monitoring the evolution of alkali-activated materials. The evolution monitored during alkali activation include internal relative humidity, structural evolution, ultrasonic evolution and heat evolution. all of these techniques provide real-time information which is significant for evaluating the reaction process of alkali activation with respected parameters applied thus will be briefly reviewed in this paper. in addition, among those techniques, due to its reliability, heat evolution is one noted as one of the most common techniques applied to elucidate the alkali activation process. Therefore, the potential of heat evolution will also be significantly highlighted in this study.
