Investigation of the Effect of Curing Applications Containing Different Nano Silica on the Strength of Cementitious Composites
Abstract
In
this study, the difference between the increase rate of compressive strengths
of cement-bonded composites at various ages cured in water and solutions
containing different amount of nano-slica has been investigated. In the new
generation curing solution developed, 0.5%, 1%, 2% and 3% of nano silica were
used. A series of samples were cured in water only for control purposes. In the
production of cement-bonded composites, fly ashes which are classified by ASTM
standards as class F and C were used. In this way, the increase in strength of
cementitious composites containing fly ash in different properties are cured in
water and solution with different nano silica amount has been revealed.
According to the results obtained from the experimental studies, the highest
strength values were obtained from the samples cured in the solution with the
2% ratio of nano silica.
