The common misconception that silica fume exists as "ultrafine spherical particles" within concrete matrices is often perpetuated by the standard practice of ultrasonic dispersion prior to particle size distribution analysis [48].This perspective suggests that a minor quantity of silica fume can fill the voids amidst cement particles, leading to the release of free water and …

Furthermore, the addition of CNS can cause the cement to set more rapidly, leading to a shorter working time and making it difficult to place and finish. This is due to the fact that the high surface area and small particle size of nano-silica can accelerate the hydration process of the cement, leading to an earlier onset of the setting time [39].

The influence on fresh and hardened properties of cement composites by the addition of nano-silica powder and colloidal nano-silica (CNS) was studied (20)(21)(22).

Zhuang [1] et al. (2019), investigated the effect of nano silica on concrete slump, mechanical, and durability properties, and the findings were reduction in setting time and slump and improvement in shrinkage. Zhang [2] et al (2019), assessed the impact of colloidal nano silica with various sizes of particles on Portland cement at early ages of curing.

To further optimize nano silica's behavior in concrete, colloidal nano silica (CNS) has been introduced as its liquid form allows for a better distribution of the nanoparticles in a concrete mixture [19], [20]. Experimental results have shown that using CNS provides better distribution than the powdered form of nano silica [19], [21].

The silica nano-particles was 0.50, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0% of cement in mass. According to the previous study [27], incorporation of colloidal nano-silica showed an obvious influence on the rheological behavior of the fresh cement paste. Therefore, in this study, the dosage of the superplasticizer was firstly adjusted to be the same as that of the ...

As a result, setting time decreased until colloidal nano-silica replacement rate to 5%. However, 7.5% colloidal nano-silica showed a slightly longer setting time than 5%. In Phoo-ngernkham et al., an experiment was carried out to add 0, 1, 2 and 3% of powdered nano-silica to FA-based geopolymer. As a result, setting time decreased with ...

According to Fig. 3, both processes are important, because the equilibrium (minimum) compressibility is safely reached at 100 min mixing time for mixtures having 1% colloidal silica loading, while those having 5% loading take much longer to reach the equilibrium and their equilibrium compressibility remains slightly higher. Surprisingly though ...

Abstract: Colloidal silica (CS) is a promising raw material for refractory castable ceramics. It consists of stable suspensions of synthetic amorphous silica nanoparticles that behave simultaneously as liquid medium and binder for ceramic particles and as a porogenic agent and highly reactive source of silica to promote in-situ reactions. The setting mechanism …

Typically, permeation grouting with colloidal silica is executed on sand possessing a coefficient of permeability surpassing 10 −5 m/s.
