MICRO SILICA
We are one of the potential suppliers of Micro Silica (Silica Fume) and it complies with ASTM C 1240 & EN 13263:2005. After it being procured from Silicon metal factories, it’s being recycled, Densified, and packed under completely automated and in closed environment.
PROPERTIES
- Appearance : Fine Powder
- Colour : Grey
- Odour : Odourless
- MPS : 25 Microns
- SiO2 : 90% Min
- Humidity : 2% Max
ADVANTAGES:
- High compressive strength by 10 – 20
- Reduces the rate of carbonation
- Lower permeability
- Lower free lime formation
- Controls bleeding in fresh concrete
- Lower Heat of Hydration, which prevents formation of cracks.
