Brief description Microstructure characteristics to structural performance: the missing link in geopolymers. Geothermal energy from the deep earth's heat is emissions-free and renewable. Cements often fail in geothermal wells due to extreme temperature cycles. Alternative new geopolymer cements will be studied for trouble-free geothermal operations. Knowledge gained will also add confidence to the use of geopolymer in general construction.
