FCSC Microsilica
Overview
Description
FCSC Microsilica is composed of silicon dioxide (SiO2), collected from silicon metal and ferrosilicon. FCSC Microsilica will react with the calcium hydroxide from the cement, which will form more of the calcium silicate hydrate, increasing the strength of the concrete. Using FCSC Microsilica will also increase the durability of the concrete.
Applications
Uses
- Shotcrete concrete
- Structural concrete
- Readymix concrete
- Project requiring high strength/high performance Concrete
- FCSC Microsilica used where high demands are imposed on the quality of fresh and hardened concrete
