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.
