INFLUENCE OF THE STRUCTURAL STATE OF SILICA ON LIME-SILICA REACTIONS

THE REACTIONS IN LIME-SILICA PASTES SHOWING POZZOLANIC ACTION AND CERTAIN ASPECTS OF CEMENT HYDRATION WERE STUDIED, EMPLOYING SILICA SAMPLES OF DIFFERENT CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS. IT IS SHOWN THAT THE STRUCTURAL STATE OF THESE SAMPLES GREATLY INFLUENCES THE REACTIONS. THE NATURE OF THE REACTION PRODUCTS AND THE MODE OF THEIR FORMATION WERE ALSO STUDIED THROUGH CHEMICAL ANALYSIS AND X-RAY AND ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES. THE RESULTS ARE DISCUSSED AND TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS ARE GIVEN. /AUTHOR/
