Micro Silica Fumes

Product Description

ADICON Micro silica is an excellent admixture for concrete as it leads to better engineering properties. Micro Silica offered by our company, is manufactured and supplied by making use of premium grade of raw materials and high techniques. This silica reduces thermal cracking, improves durability, and increases strength. Our Micro Silica is tested under various parameters to ensure its high quality. This silica is very cost effective and highly appreciated in the market too. This requires very low maintenance and replacement costs.

ADVANTAGES

• Higher compressive strength by 10-20 % 
• Reduces the rate of carbonation 
• Lower permeability Resistance to penetration of water, chloride & other chemicals 
• Lower free lime formation Delays Ettringite and Thaumasite formation 
• Controls bleeding in fresh concrete 
• Lower Heat of Hydration, which prevents formation of cracks.

PROPERTIES

• Appearance - Very fine powder 
• Colour - Grey 
• Odour - Odourless 
• Particle Size - 45 microns 
• SiO2 Silica 90 % minimum 
• Humidity - 2 % maximum

HOW IT WORKS : 

• Pozzolanic effect: It increases the performance of concrete & formations. It acts physically to optimise particle packing of concrete or mixture and chemically as a high reactive pozzolan. 
• Micro filler effect: It is an extremely fine material, with an average diameter much finer than the cement. It gets well distributed in the cementatious paste, thus blocking the bleed-water channels

PACKAGING Available in 25 Kg HDPE bags or Jumbo Bags (1000 Kg)

QUALITY Adicon Micro Silica Fumes is a super pozzolan - a finely powdered material which when added to cementitious matter increases durability and gives higher strength. It complies with ASTM C1240.
