Silica Fume

Silica Fume is a high-performance, ultra-fine, amorphous powder that is a byproduct of silicon metal or ferrosilicon alloys. It is widely used as a supplementary cementitious material to enhance the properties of concrete and mortar. Silica Fume improves the strength, durability, and workability of concrete, offering excellent resistance to chemical attack, particularly in environments exposed to sulfates, chlorides, and acids. By filling the microscopic voids in the concrete mix, it significantly reduces permeability and enhances long-term durability. Silica Fume is commonly used in high-strength concrete applications, including in the construction of bridges, tunnels, dams, and industrial floors.

Key Features:

• Ultra-fine, high-purity amorphous silica powder
• Enhances concrete strength, durability, and workability
• Improves resistance to chemical attacks (sulfates, chlorides, acids)
• Reduces permeability for more durable concrete
• Increases density and reduces shrinkage cracks
• Compatible with various types of cement and concrete mixes
• Ideal for high-performance concrete applications

Usage Applications:

• High-strength concrete for bridges, tunnels, and dams
• Concrete for industrial flooring and heavy-duty applications
• Construction of roads, pavements, and airport runways
• Waterproofing and corrosion-resistant concrete for marine structures
• Concrete exposed to harsh chemical environments (e.g., wastewater treatment plants)
• Repair and rehabilitation of concrete structures
• Precast concrete, high-performance mortars, and grout applications
