Mineralogical analysis on pastes of Spanish Portland cement Type I, blended with nanosilica was carried out by conventional and high-resolution thermogravimetric analysis (TG-HRTG) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) in order to ...
This research evaluates the combination of nanosilica particles and ground limestone as mineral additions for white Portland cement (WPC) matrixes, envisioning architectural applications where the whiteness of the final ...
In this paper the effects of nanosilica (NS) on porosity, capillary suction (UNE 8398:2008), compressive strength (ASTM C 349), and sulfate resistance (ASTM C 1012) were evaluated for mortars made with Portland cement ...
