Elkem Microsilica® 920D
Elkem Microsilica® 920D is a concrete admixture of the new generation in powder form. This product contains ultra-fine micro-silica that allows filling holes between cement particles, creating a solid and highly waterproof concrete surface.
Specification Type
Elkem Microsilica® 920D complies with ASTM C1240.
Advantages
Elkem Microsilica® 920D contains extremely fine (particle size < 0.1μm) latently reactive silicon dioxide. The presence of this substance will exert free calcium (calcium hydroxide in cement mortar) to create calcium hydrated silicate which will significantly improve internal cohesion and water retentivity. Concrete will have a very high bonding capacity and significantly improved pumpability.
When used together superplasticizer, the concrete will show the following properties:
