Abstract

This study investigates the effect of various microfillers on the abrasion resistance of metakaolin-based, geopolymer composites. Comparative tests were conducted on a baseline geopolymer and composites reinforced with chamotte powder, basalt microfiber, prestressed, solid, basalt glass microspheres (PSBGM), and their combinations. Abrasion resistance was evaluated according to ASTM C501-21 using the Taber Abraser. The results demonstrate that prestressed, solid, basalt glass microspheres significantly enhance wear resistance, both individually and in combination with chamotte powder or basalt microfiber. Quantitative analysis indicates that basalt-based microfillers enhance abrasion resistance by a factor of 3 to 4. This is due to the high surface microhardness of prestressed, solid, basalt glass microspheres, produced using the superheated melt method, which is approximately 7.1 GPa on the Vickers scale. These results confirm the potential of basalt microfillers and geopolymer matrices for developing highly wear-resistant, fully inorganic, composite materials, coatings, and repair mixtures.

玄武岩玻璃微球和微纤维对偏高岭土聚合物复合材料耐磨性的影响

研究了不同微填料对偏高岭土聚合物复合材料耐磨性的影响。通过对比试验，研究了以灰岩粉、玄武岩微纤维、预应力、固体、玄武岩玻璃微球（PSBGM）及其组合增强的基准地聚合物和复合材料。根据ASTM C501-21使用Taber磨料进行耐磨性评估。结果表明，预应力、固体、玄武岩玻璃微球无论是单独使用还是与皂角粉或玄武岩微纤维结合使用，都能显著提高耐磨性。定量分析表明，玄武岩基微填料的耐磨性提高了3 ~ 4倍。这是由于使用过热熔融法生产的预应力固体玄武岩玻璃微球的表面显微硬度高，在维氏尺度上约为7.1 GPa。这些结果证实了玄武岩微填料和地聚合物基质在开发高耐磨、全无机复合材料、涂料和修复混合物方面的潜力。
