Abstract

New building materials must meet strict requirements on mechanical properties. Therefore structural and chemical characterization of new building materials is very important. The correlative microscopy is a new possibility of materials analysis. This method combines light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). LM images can be then precisely extended by their morphological background and/or material distribution, e.g. with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). With using correlative microscopy, the weakest places of alkali-activated concrete were found.
