  • Silica fume is a byproduct of the reaction between quartz and coal, coke, or wood chips and also forms in the production of silicon and ferrosilicon alloys. Silica fume is another silica-based additive used in cementitious applications. It is classified as ultrafine, with the size of spherical particles being less than 1 µm in diameter, 100 – 150 times smaller than an average cement particle. It acts as a pozzolan and filler when used in cementitious applications like concrete, repair products, The benefits of fumed silica and silica fume in the manufacturing and construction industries are well known.

Is silica fume more expensive than cement

A disadvantage to utilizing silica fume in cement is the cost. Condensed silica fume costs $400-$1,000/ton, significantly higher than Portland cement ($90/ton). Some materials, such as silica dust, will pose no threat of explosion, while metal dust from magnesium or aluminum, for example, is very explosive. In general, about 70% of dust is explosive. In addition, non-explosive materials (sand or Silica, for example) could become explosive when mixed with other explosive materials (such as organi

Can silica fume replace cement

Silica fume was used to replace 0% to 15% of cement by weight at increments of 5% for both cube and cylinder. The results showed that the partial replacement of cement with silica fume significantly affected the compressive strength of the cube and split tensile strength cylinder. Silica gel is not biodegradable. It does not break down because it is inorganic and made of sand. Therefore, it will remain in the compost pile for years or even decades. Breathing in dust from silica-containing materi
