Meta-Kaolin for High Performance Concrete
Natural Kaolinite was calcined under different temperatures and the reactivity, performance and hydration of the resultant meta-kaolin when added into Portland cement were evaluated as a comparison with silica fume addition into Portland cement. Both of the comparison results of cement and concrete indicate that both meta-kaolin calcined at suitable temperature and silica fume almost exhibit the same performance in terms of workability, strength development and durability and that it is technically feasible to use meta-kaolin as replacement of silica fume.
