Cement Paste Mixture Proportioning with Particle Packing Theory: An Ambiguous Effect of Microsilica

Abstract: Recently, the research of innovative building materials is focused on applying supplementary materials in the form of micro- and nanopowders in cementitious composites due to the growing insistence on sustainable development. Considering above, in paper, a research on the effect of microsilica and SiO2 nanoparticles addition to cement paste, designed with Andreasen and Andersen (AA) packing density model (PDM), in terms of its physical and mechanical properties was conducted. Density, porosity, compressive str… Show more

“…Modification with microsilica is currently very popular due to its effectiveness in improving the properties of concrete both separately and in combination with other additives [ 15 , 19 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 ]. The most effective dosages of microsilica vary from 5 to 20%, depending on the raw materials used and the types of concrete.…”

“…At the same time, the increase in strength characteristics varies from insignificant, when only microsilica is added, to quite impressive (30–80%), when other additives are used along with microsilica, in particular, flask and diatomite [ 27 ], fly ash [ 19 ], carbon nanotubes [ 26 ], nanosilica, and nanosilica sol [ 19 , 41 , 43 , 44 ]. Microsilica densifies and strengthens the structure, increasing its uniformity and stabilizing the cement hydration process [ 19 , 27 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ].…”
