Abstract Reinforcement with the basalt textile can improve both the mechanical performance and volume stability of the alkali-activated cementitious materials. But the current understanding of its durability and long-term performance is still limited. In order to resolve this issue, accelerated aging experiment, flexural test and microscale characterization with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were conducted for the basalt textile reinforced alkali-activated slag-fly ash cement mortar and Portland cement mortar specimens with and without epoxy coating. The experimental results indicate that compared with that of Portland cement mortar specimens, the flexural strength of the textile reinforced alkali-activated cement mortar specimens decreased more obviously with accelerated aging. After exposure for 24 d, the strength retention rate of alkali-activated cement mortar specimens and Portland cement mortar specimens are 68.94% and 81.69% respectively. The epoxy coating can improve the flexural strength and mitigate the alkaline deterioration on the flexural strength in the early stage of aging. But the effect of the epoxy coating gradually weakens with the increase of the age, and roughly fails at 18 d. Specifically, the reduction degree on the ultimate flexural strain is more obvious compared to that of the flexural strength. The basalt fibers embedded in the Portland cement mortars present local pit corrosion, while the wholescale pit corrosion can be found on the surface of those embedded in the alkali-activated cement mortars. These results support that the epoxy coating can effectively protect textiles from the alkali solution in matrix, but it degrades gradually during the accelerated aging process. Hence, the development of new surface treatment methods is needed to achieve more durable and effective surface protection for the basalt fiber in alkaline solution.
