Red ceramic waste (RCW), being a source of silica and alumina, can serve as a precursor for producing geopolymers. In this work, we evaluated the feasibility of producing geopolymers from hollow brick (HB) and hydrated lime, using only sodium hydroxide as an alkaline activator. The test specimens were prepared replacement HB by up to 30 wt% of hydrated lime, aiming to evaluate the compressive strength after 7 and 28 curing days of the geopolymer produced. The results showed that samples with 30 wt% of hydrated lime, achieved the highest compressive strength (11.26 MPa) after 28 days of curing, although all values found were above the limit established by Brazilian standards for modular geopolymer bricks. The results therefore show a sustainable and widely viable implementation alternative to reduce the environmental impacts caused by the production of Portland cement.Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia Laboratório de Caracterização e Gestão de Resíduos Sólidos (LCGRS), SPUniversidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia Laboratório de Caracterização e Gestão de Resíduos Sólidos (LCGRS), SPUniversidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)2025-04-29T18:49:01Z2024-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1980-5373-MR-2024-0203Materials Research, v. 27.1980-53731516-1439https://hdl.handle.net/11449/30024610.1590/1980-5373-MR-2024-02032-s2.0-85201879436Scopusreponame:Repositório Institucional da UNESPinstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPengMaterials Researchinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessColnago, Lauren Rayna Lima [UNESP]Santos, Ana Karla Vieira [UNESP]dos Santos Potensa, Bruno [UNESP]Chaves, Felipe Pires [UNESP]de Almeida Santos, Gleyson Tadeu [UNESP]de Souza, Agda Eunice [UNESP]Teixeira, Silvio Rainho [UNESP]2025-10-22T17:39:12Zoai:repositorio.unesp.br:11449/300246Repositório InstitucionalPUBhttp://repositorio.unesp.br/oai/requestrepositoriounesp@unesp.bropendoar:29462025-10-22T17:39:12Repositório Institucional da UNESP - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false
