Characterization of net-zero pozzolanic potential of thermally-derived metakaolin samples for sustainable carbon neutrality construction

Abstract Metakaolin (MK) is one of the most sustainable cementitious construction materials, which is derived through a direct heating procedure known as calcination. Calcination process takes place substantially lower temperatures than that required for Portland cement, making it a more environment...
