The Effects of Silica Fume and Superplasticizer Type on the Properties and Microstructure of Reactive Powder Concrete

This paper deals with the optimization of reactive powder concrete mixtures with respect to the addition of silica fume and the type of polycarboxylate superplasticizer used. First, the properties of reactive powder concrete with eight different commercial polycarboxylate superplasticizers were test...
