Color possibilities of artificial sandstones based on geopolymers
Lattenberg, Pavel ; Kalina, Lukáš (referee) ; Opravil, Tomáš (advisor)
This thesis deals with the possibility of preparing artificial sandstone based on geopolymer matrix and ways to achieve a natural appearance and good mechanical properties. The theoretical part is devoted to the current state of knowledge in the field of geopolymers and their recovery potential, but also the natural sandstone and its geographic diversity. The practical part deals with the preparation of various types of binding systems based on metakaolin, ground blast furnace slag and water glass. Their comparison, and the possibility the appearance and characteristics change in the composition of the filler.

Study of synthetic sandstones preparation possibilities
Solik, Jaroslav ; Kalina, Lukáš (referee) ; Opravil, Tomáš (advisor)
This thesis explores the possibility of developing synthetic sandstones based on alkaline-activated (geopolymer) binders. The goal is to design an appropriate connective system of optimal concentration, so that the prepared material (artificial stone) showed similar characteristics as natural. The experimental section summarizes the experiments that explore several different alkali connective systems. The aim is to compare the properties of binders prepared from methakaolin (Mefisto K-05 and L-05) alkali-activated by sodium or potassium water glass. For comparison with these connective systems were also prepared samples of commercially supplied geopolymer binder called Baucis

Artificial stone - methods of preparation and properties
Pluskalová, Barbora ; Bayer, Patrik (referee) ; Rovnaník, Pavel (advisor)
The aim of the thesis „Artificial stone – Methods of preparation and it´s properties“ deals with the various methods and issues concerning the preparation of artificial stone. The thesis presents the summary of materials and various methods suitable for the preparation and points out mechanical properties, including durability of material, which serves as an alternative to natural stone. Further on, the thesis deals with the studies of binding systems based on geopolymers, which are used for the artificial stone preparation. This part of the thesis is associated with the experimental part, which is aimed at choosing the suitable mixing ratio of binder to aggregate in the artificial stone based on metakaolin geopolymer. According to the results of mechanical tests and aesthetic impression the author chose the best composition and then created a decorative element.
