Rice husk ash as both pozzolanic admixture and internal curing agent in ultra-high performance concrete
Abstract The present study investigated the effects of mesoporous amorphous rice husk ash (RHA) on compressive strength, portlandite content, autogenous shrinkage and internal relative humidity (RH) of ultra-high performance concretes (UHPCs) with and without ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) under different treatments. The results were compared with those of UHPCs containing silica fume (SF). Because of the mesoporous structure, RHA can absorb an amount of aqueous phase to decrease the free water content and to supply thereafter water for further hydrations of cementitious materials. Hence, compressive strength of RHA-blended samples is enhanced. The highly water absorbing RHA delays and slows down the decrease in the internal RH (self-desiccation) of UHPCs, and hence strongly mitigates autogenous shrinkage of UHPCs compared to SF. The combination of GGBS and RHA or SF improves the properties of UHPC. These results suggest that RHA acts as both highly pozzolanic admixture and internal curing agent in UHPC.
