Dear Rahmot,

you should to understand how work the Geopolymer technology then will know that it‘s useless what you are asking.

Industrially you must use specific silicates for Geopolymer systems, made in autoclave precisely, never mix like you are asking. The informations you are searching for are written in the book Geopolymer - Chemistry & Applications from prof. Davidovits (find all at www.geopolymer.org) and you will see that exists a chapter dedicated to the reagents preparation.

Best regards

Dr. Alex Reggiani
