SILICA FUME CONCRETE Silica fume is an artificial pozzolona having high pozzolonic activity. It is a By- product from an electric arc furnace used in manufacture of silicon metal or silicon alloy. It has high silica content of more than 80%. It is an excellent for use as a portland cement supplement.

Learn MoreAddition of silica fume to concrete has many advantages like high strength, durability and reduction in cement production. The optimum silica fume replacement percentage for obtaining maximum 28- days strength of concrete ranged from 10 to 20 % (4)(5). Cement replacement up to 10% with silica fume leads to increase in compressive

Learn Morestrength of 10% silica fume concrete (w/c = 0.35) ranged from 8.5% to 8.9% at ages of 28 to 182 days, whereas similar concrete without silica fume ranged from 9.4% to 10.7%. Rather than the compressive and tensile strength addition between 10% to 15% addition of silica fume the concrete works great for protection to embedded steel (chlorides),
Learn MoreFurther, mostly silica fume concrete is designed with a low w/c ratio. Due to both of these, the problem of concrete bleeding goes away. Effect of Micro-silica on hardened concrete. We already know that cement reacts with water after mixing the ingredients of concrete, producing C-S-H gel and Calcium Hydroxide. Since silica fume is a pozzolanic
Learn MoreSilica fume is a byproduct of silica that’s very finely divided into the industry. The concrete where silica fume can be used is known as “silica fume concrete”. The typical concrete using a normal water-cement ratio always has micro-pores, which limits the strength of regular concrete.
Learn MoreSilica fume is one such industrial by product which is being used and experimented upon to obtain a stronger and durable concrete. It is one of the pozzolonas having very large surface area which
Learn MoreThat is why the micro silica fume improved the durability and mechanical properties of concrete. Figures 6 and 7 showed the interface of the sample containing nano-SiO 2. It can be seen from the figures that the concrete without nano-SiO 2 was more likely to form larger crystals and pores, and the whole structure was more in-compact.
Learn MoreEffects on hardened concrete • Pore size refinement and reduction in permeability occurs when silica fume is used. • Compressive and flexural strengths are increased. •Elastic modulus is increased (E SFC ~ 115% E PCC), or, in other words, concrete becomes stiffer with the use of silica fume D.W.christen , E.V.Sorenson & F.F.Radjy," Rockbond: A New Microsilica Concrete
