Particle packing of cement and silica fume in pastes using an analytical model

Abstract: ResumoWhen added to concrete in appropriate content, silica fume may provide an increase in the mechanical strength of the material due to its high pozzolanic reactivity. In addition to the chemical contribution, physical changes can also be observed in concretes with silica fume due to an improvement in the particle packing of the paste. This is a result of their small size spherical particles, which fill the voids between the larger cement grains. However, it is necessary to properly establish the cement rep… Show more

“…Since the packing density is reached when all particles of the system are wet, the SF water demand will be higher due to its higher specific surface area. Additionally, in finer particles, the relation between surface area and volume is higher, which causes the forces of attraction between grains to be dominant, thus, favoring the formation of agglomerates where air can be entrapped and leading to a higher voids ratio 19,23 . For the maximum solids concentration of each individual material presented (Figure 4), the air ratio was calculated as previously described.…”

“…Therefore, a high yield stress was required to break the bonds of the chain structures so that the fluid could flow. In contrast, the yield stress of the MRG-P incorporated with 30 wt% of plate-like CI particles was reduced at a higher applied magnetic field due to the increasing void ratio, where the particles did not completely fill in the grease medium, resulting in the loosening of the chains in the MR grease concentration [ 32 ]. The particles were not saturated to form pre-structures even though the gap between the particles was small to allow free orientation movement, defined as the damping effect [ 10 ].…”
