Influence of Nano-Silica and Silica Fume in the Steel Corrosion Embedded in Concrete

Corrosion of steel is one of the most important potential dangers and threats in concrete structures. Corrosion of steel embedded in reinforced concrete plays a key role in reducing the strength and durability of reinforced concrete. Several studies have proposed that alternative approaches to enhancing the performance of reinforced concrete and its resistance to corrosion. In this study, the r...

Influence of silica fume on the microstructure of cement pastes: New insights from 1H NMR relaxometry

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: 1 H NMR (B) Silica fume (D) C–S–H composition (B) Density (B) 1 H NMR has been used to characterise white Portland cement paste incorporating 10 wt.% of silica fume. Samples were measured sealed throughout the hydration without sample drying. Paste compositions and C–S–H characteristics are calculated based on 1 H NMR signal intensities and relaxation analysis. T...

Influence of Silica Fume on Normal Concrete

The incorporation of silica fume into the normal concrete is a routine one in the present days to produce the tailor made high strength and high performance concrete. The design parameters are increasing with the incorporation of silica fume in conventional concrete and the mix proportioning is becoming complex. The main objective of this paper has been made to investigate the different mechani...
