Effect of admixtures on the properties of metakaolin geopolymer
Halasová, Kristýna ; Vyšvařil, Martin (referee) ; Rovnaník, Pavel (advisor)
Geopolymers are amorphous to semi-crystalline aluminosilicate polymers which are formed from inorganic polycondensation reaction of a solid aluminosilicate precursor with an alkaline sodium hydroxide or silicate. The resulting materials exhibit high durability, resistance to aggressive environments, high temperature resistance and many other properties that make them have received much attention in recent years, not only in construction. This thesis describes the influence of additives commonly used in concrete and mortar (water reducing, superplasticizer, air-entraining, foamer and defoamer, anti-shrinkage, stabilization) on the behavior of metakaolin in geopolymer fresh and hardened state. It describes metakaolin geopolymer effect on rheological properties of fresh mixtures, compressive strength and flexural strength after 28 days and a density in the fresh and hardened state.

Waterproof concrete structures and regulations for the design and implementation
Křenek, Daniel ; Brožovský, Jiří (referee) ; Hubáček, Adam (advisor)
This thesis covers the issues of design, production, and property testing in regards to waterlight concrete structures. The testing conducted on the properties fit in accordance to the Czech Republic and international regulations. This thesis covers the issues of design, production, and property testing in regards to waterlight concrete structures. The experimental part focused on the design of the concrete mix, which stems from previous knowledge of individual, and speific regulations. Various types of cement were particularly examined along with studying the effects of admixtures that were partially replaced by cement with propoerties of watertight concrete

The development of composite material system with focus on matrix for extreme conditions
Gratclová, Kamila ; Gross,, Tomáš (referee) ; Bydžovský, Jiří (advisor)
The thesis deals with composite systems, with a focus on matrix resistant to extreme conditions. The aim of this work was to research and development matrix, resistant to high temperatures, typical in case of fire. Used theoretical knowledge were realized with subsequent laboratory research. Attention was paid matrices based binder mixed with any alkali activation of alternative raw materials and geopolymers. Scattered reinforcement featured polypropylene fibers. The subject of the practical part of the two alternatives, including a matrix based on basic ingredients - cement, alternative raw materials - high fly ash, blast furnace slag, geopolymer and polymeric components incl. combinations thereof. Laboratory research conducted by determining the fundamental material properties such as density, strengths, etc., after heat exposure. The developed materials were subjected to a temperature 1400 ° C. The conclusion was selected several recipes that were based on the resulting values found to be optimal.

Issues of design and testing of waterproof concrete fot tunnel lining
Merta, Michael ; Voves, Jiří (referee) ; Hubáček, Adam (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the issue of waterproof concrete and testing its properties. The theoretical part is conceived through research on existing knowledge relating to waterproof concrete. Emphasis is placed on the possibility of using a waterproof concrete for structures, such is e.g. tunnel lining. The experimental part is focused on the laboratory testing of waterproof concrete. Particulary examined was the effect of various admixtures as a partial replacement of cement. Monitored was the development of compressive strength and flexural strength, development of temperature during hydration in the early stages of maturation of concrete, water resistance of concrete, concrete surface resistance to water and chemical de-icing agents, as well as development of shrinkage during concrete maturation.

The research on electrochemical and material characteristics new developed layered electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries
Kratochvíl, Miroslav ; Jirák, Tibor (referee) ; Sedlaříková, Marie (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with electrode materials for lithium-ions accumulators, concretely layered materials prepared via new methods. The main objective of this work is dealing with new procedures prepare electrodes of newly developed layered electrode materials and subsequently their measure. Another challenge was a theoretical analysis of newly developed layered electrode materials for positive and negative electrodes and their preparation of new procedures. In this work the detailed procedures for the preparation of individual electrodes, electrolytes and other issues associated with these preparations. There were describing batteries of general, primary and secondary lithium cells, fuel cells, Lithium-ion batteries, layered materials forming the electrodes and of course the history these cells. Practical work is focused on separate measurements layered electrode materials prepared by new processes and assessment of results for individual layered materials. In the practical part has been made that the newly prepared layered electrode materials offer higher capacity and voltage.
