• This study aims to develop a geopolymer binder, which requires a control of the reactive mixture setting time, viscosity and pH value. A previous study underlines the possibility of controlling the setting time, viscosity and pH value of geopolymer binders by the addition of phosphate- or boron–based compounds. To understand the structural evolutions responsible for these operating property changes, magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis were performed on the different binders. A batch of ten specific samples was studied by 11B or 31P (depending on the additive nature), 27Al and 29Si MAS NMR. The NMR spectral decomposition results were correlated with the operating properties of the different binders. The setting time increase was associated with the formation of a secondary phase based on boron or phosphorous. The pH variation is connected with both the modified Si/Al ratio and the asymmetric BIII species associated with one non-bridging oxygen (NBO) atom. Thus, determination of the various NMR environments is a useful tool to predict the setting time and pH value evolutions. •Geopolymers with boron-based additives contain boron in their geopolymer network•Boron insertion can induce an increase of NBO resulting in a pH value decrease•Phosphate-based additives limit polycondensation reactions by bridging Al atoms•Formation of secondary network, based on P or B, raises the geopolymer setting time
