INTRODUCTION
As global climate change is becoming increasingly severe, the construction industry, as a major contributor to carbon emissions, is facing tremendous pressure to reduce carbon emissions. Concrete, as one of the most common materials used in construction, has been attracting much attention for its high carbon emission in the production process. As an efficient concrete admixture, Silica Fume plays an irreplaceable role in reducing the carbon footprint of concrete.
HSA Silica Fume: Leading the industry with more than 20 years of deep cultivation
HSA has more than 20 years of experience in the production of Silica Fumes, and its products are exported to dozens of countries around the world, and it has established long-term and stable cooperative relationships with industry giants such as Sika and Washington Mills. Years of experience in the market has made HSA’s product quality and technical level always in the leading position in the industry.
How does Silica Fume reduce carbon emissions?
- Reduced cement use: Silica Fume can significantly improve the strength and durability of concrete, thus reducing the need for cement. The cement production process is a major source of carbon emissions, so reducing the amount of cement used means reducing carbon emissions.
- Improvement of concrete properties: By adding Silica Fume, the compressive strength, impermeability, crack resistance and other properties of concrete can be improved, thus reducing the thickness of the concrete structure and lowering material consumption.
- Extend the life of concrete: Silica fume can significantly improve the durability of concrete, extend its service life, reduce the repair and reconstruction due to concrete damage, and thus reduce the carbon emissions of the entire building life cycle.
HSA Silica Fume Product Line
HSA offers a wide range of silica fume products including Densified Silica Fume (G85D, G92D, G94D, G96D), Undensified Silica Fume (G85U, G92U, G94U, G96U) and White Microsilica (Zirconium silica fume) (ZSF). silica fume (ZSF94,95,96), which can meet different customers’ needs.
Case Study: Application of HSA microsilica fume in real projects
- High-rise buildings: By adding HSA silica fume, the strength and durability of concrete in high-rise buildings can be improved, the thickness of the structure can be reduced, and the construction cost can be lowered.
- Infrastructure: Apply HSA Silica Fume in bridges, tunnels and other infrastructure projects to improve the erosion resistance and freeze-thaw resistance of concrete and extend the project life.
- Prefabricated components: Utilize HSA Silica Fume to produce high-performance prefabricated components to speed up construction progress and reduce carbon emissions from on-site construction.
Conclusion
As a highly efficient green building material, Silica Fume has great potential to reduce carbon emissions from construction, and HSA, as a leading company in the Silica Fume industry, will continue to devote itself to the development and promotion of high-performance Silica Fume products, contributing to the realization of the goal of carbon neutrality.
