Original Abstract

During their use reinforced concrete structures are exposed to external influences. Nowadays, the reducing ffect of these influences is usually ensured by secondary (barrier) protection. At present, coatings based on organic substances are commonly used. However, these types of secondary protection show substantial limits under extreme conditions. A method that has considerable potential to eliminate these disadvantages includes the application of secondary protection based on alkali-activated materials or geopolymers. This paper is focused on the development and optimisation of secondary protection (coating, plaster) based on alkali-activated materials intended for reinforced concrete structures to be exposed to highly chemically aggressive environments.
