The specimen was prepared through the mechanical ground with sandpaper and diamond pad before polished with diamond suspension. By using advanced technique electron backscatter diffraction, the microstructure analysis and elemental distribution were mapped. The details on the crystalline minerals, including gehlenite, mayenite, tobermorite and calcite were easily traced. Moreover, the experimental Kikuchi diffraction patterns were utilized to generate a self-consistent reference for the electron backscatter diffraction pattern matching. From the electron backscatter diffraction, the locally varying crystal orientation in slag geopolymers sample of monoclinic crystal observed in hedenbergite, orthorhombic crystal in tobermorite and hexagonal crystal in calcite at 1000°C heating temperature.}, type={Article}, title={The Investigation of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag Geopolymer at High Temperature by Using Electron Backscatter Diffraction Analysis}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/122528/PDF/AMM-2022-1-29-Al%20Bakri%20Abdullah.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2022.137494}, keywords={geopolymer, ground granulated blast furnace slag, electron backscatter diffraction}, }
