Effects of metakaolin and silica fume on properties of concrete

open access: yes, 2002
Metakaolin is a relatively new mineral admixture for concrete. It is comparable to silica fume in pozzolanic reactivity, but is lower in price. The effects of metakaolin and silica fume on various properties of concrete were investigated and compared in ...

Split‐disk testing of precast ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete tubes

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) has great potential for structural applications involving precast cylindrical shapes, including pipes, silos and stay‐in‐place forms for concrete columns. This study examines the performance of UHPFRC rings under internal pressure simulated using the split‐disk loading method, along ...

Durability performance of a high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete for bridge applications

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates the durability performance of a coarse‐aggregate high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (HPFRC) developed as a cost‐efficient material solution for precast bridge applications. A comprehensive experimental program was conducted to assess the resistance of the material to the principal deterioration mechanisms ...

Enhancing Concrete Properties Using Silica Fume: Optimized Mix Design

open access: yes, 2023
In the current work, concrete mixes containing (7.0-33.11) weight % silica fume as a partial replacement of cement with a water /cement ratio (0.42-0.48) were prepared according to an adopted two factorial central composite design.

Thermal Degradation Kinetics and Flame‐Retardant Synergy in Zinc Borate/Red Phosphorus‐Filled Thermoplastic Polyurethane Composites

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
The synergistic interaction between red phosphorus (RP) and zinc borate (ZnB) enhances the thermal stability and flame retardancy of TPU by forming a dense, stable protective char layer. Non‐isothermal kinetic analysis confirms a complex degradation mechanism governed by conversion‐dependent activation energy.

Influence of condensed silica fume and sand/cement ratio on pore structure and frost resistance of portland cement mortars

open access: yes, 1986
Pore structure changes in silica fume-portland cement blend mortars fabricated with 0, 10 and 30% silica fume at a water/ binder ratio of 0.60 and a sand/cement ratio of 2.25 have been monitored by mercury porosimetry while being cured for 1 to 180 days.

Thermal Degradation and Thermal Decomposition of Plasticized PVC Including POSS Additives for PVC Compounds: Mechanisms, Impact, and Performance of Standards

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
Additives' structures. ABSTRACT Poly(vinyl chloride) has been a key polymeric material since its commercial production in 1931, demonstrating versatility across numerous industries due to its compatibility with various additives. PVC's inherent properties, flame retardance, durability, and recyclability make it ideal for building and construction ...
