Description
Kozub and co-authors test how oils change the traits of foamed building materials made from fly ash, in a study from 2024. The materials, called geopolymers, can turn industrial waste into a greener building stock. The team added new and used oils at 5, 10, and 15 percent by weight.
Samples were made from class F fly ash with a strong alkaline mix. The team measured density, heat flow, bending and crushing strength, and pore structure. Oils reshaped the pores and shifted the strength of the foam in clear ways. Which oil was used, and whether it was fresh or spent, mattered for the final strength. The authors see oils as a way to improve the foam while recycling waste oil.
