Silica fume is a by-product of producting silicon metal or ferrosilicon alloys in smelters using electric arc furnaces. These metals are used in many industrial applications to include aluminum and steel production, computer chip fabrication, and production of silicons, which are widely used in lubricants and sealants. While these are very valuable materials, the by-product silica fume is more importance to the concrete industry.
Microsilica production:
Microsilica 600 is highly reactive pozzolan and falls into the amorphous silica family of products but has significant advantages over silica fume.
Microsilica 600 meets the requirements detailed in AS/NZS3582.3. Microsilica 600 can be used to enhance a number of hardened concrete properties and is used to develop concretes that provide significant improvement in durability or strength.
The microsilica 600 advantages:
– Very low chloride ion diffusion
– Increased compressive strength
– Reduced water permeability
– Improved sulphate resistance
– Improved abrasion resistance
– Improved resistance to chemical attack
– Improved stability in geothermal environments
– Reduced efflorescence
