A STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF FINE MINERAL POWDERS WITH DISTINCT VITREOUS CONTENTS ON THE FLUIDITY AND RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE

This paper presented an investigation on the effects of fine mineral powders on the fluidity and rheological properties of concrete. It was observed that the fluidity of concrete increased noticeably, and the plastic viscosity decreased, when vitreous powders were substituted partially for cement. It was found in the paper that vitreous powders have a strong dispersion effect on the fluidity and rheological properties of concrete, and this effect can be correlated with the vitreous content of the powders incorporated.
