Effect of nano-silica on Portland cement matrices containing supplementary cementitious materials
abstract: For a controlled granulometry, this study evaluates the effect of nano-silica on mechanical and rheological properties, as well in the microstructure of Portland cement matrices containing a fixed amount of supplementary cementitious materials and three different types of cements. The rheological behavior of cement pastes was evaluated by rotational rheometry and mechanical performance was measured througth the compressive strength. The microstructure was analyzed by intrusion mercury porosimetry and scanning electron microscopy. There was an increasing on the viscosity of the cementitious matrices, as a consequence of the reduction in the inter particle separation of these suspensions. The optimum content of nano-silica varied according to Ca/Si ratio of Portland cement matrices containing supplementary cementitious materials. The use of nano-silica allowed to modify the pore size distribution of cementitious matrices. And the structure of nano-silica in cementitious matrices has occurred in layers or agglomerates of nano-particles covered by hydration products.
