Geopolymer concrete shares similar mechanical properties with ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete, and is even provided with better performances in high temperature and high corrosion circumstances. However, geopolymer binder is still subject to the disadvantages of large shrinkage and high brittleness, which greatly limit its application. Fiber reinforcement is widely used in various geopolymer systems to overcome the brittleness issue, but retains the high strength. Over the past 10 years, a significant advance has been made in the research of fiber reinforced geopolymers in terms of toughening efficiency and durability improvement. This paper, as a mini review, focuses on three types of fibers, i.e., inorganic fiber, natural fiber and synthetic fiber, in geopolymers, and their specific effects on compressive, flexural and tensile strengths, fractural toughness, shear strength and durability including shrinkage, chemical and freezing-thaw resistances. The recement understanding of bonding mechanism and fiber-geopolymer interface are also discussed, and knowledge gaps and future work challenges are correspondingly pointed out.
