The influence of natural pozzolana mineralogical composition in the properties of blended cement
Materiales de Construccion, 2002 The pozzolana activity is the main property of the active additions but, in order to select them, we have to consider - between other factors- its mineralogical composition with a great influence, not only in the active component, but also in other ...

Natural pozzolana addition effect on compressive strength and capillary water absorption of Mortar
Energy Procedia, 2017 Abstract The cement manufacturing is the one of the factors that pollutes the atmosphere in the industrial sector. The common way to reduce this pollution is using mineral additives as partial replacement of Portland cement. Particularly, natural pozzolana (NP) is a component in which they can be used to decrease the rate of pollution.

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2009 We present experimental results on the flow and stability conditions for natural pozzolana, a natural volcanic sand widely used in concrete production. We measured different angles involved in equilibrium conditions for sand piles and relate them to the flux parameters necessary to produce a silo evacuation.
