Investigations on the development of the permeability properties of binary blended concrete with nano-SiO2 particles

Water permeability of cement-based concrete has been recognized as a critical intrinsic property highly affecting the durability of reinforced concrete. An experimental study was done, designed to examine the water permeability and setting time of Portland cement mortar with nano-SiO2 admixed at 0.5...

description Water permeability of cement-based concrete has been recognized as a critical intrinsic property highly affecting the durability of reinforced concrete. An experimental study was done, designed to examine the water permeability and setting time of Portland cement mortar with nano-SiO2 admixed at 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 wt% of cement. The percentage, velocity, and coefficient of water absorption tests results showed that the incorporation of nano-SiO2 particles improved the water penetration resistance of the binary-blended concrete. Such improvements were especially significant when using 2 wt% of nano-SiO2. The experimental results revealed that the admixing of nano-SiO2 particles not only led to denser cement mortar but also changed the morphology of cement hydration products. Mechanisms were proposed to explain the physicochemical changes induced by the nano-SiO2 particles and the specific surface area of them is demonstrated as one of the key factors. Considering the higher strength and durability is promising their use in binary-blended concrete.
