Product Overview

Meeting purity and stability requirements

MSILI 96% Densified Silica Fume is a highly reactive siliceous material with a silicon dioxide (SiO₂) content of at least 96%. The product undergoes a thorough densification process that significantly increases its bulk density while maintaining the pozzolanic activity and micro-filling capabilities of silica fume. This reduces dust generation during transportation and feeding, making it more suitable for large-scale storage and transportation, automated feeding, and continuous production.

Product Advantages

Direct Production, Stable Quality

High purity, more stable performance

With low impurity content and stable reactivity, it is suitable for demanding applications such as UHPC, high-strength concrete, and high-performance grouts.

Greater shipping efficiency

The products have a high bulk density, occupying less space for the same weight, which increases container loading capacity and reduces transportation and warehousing costs.

Suitable for automated feeding

Densified particles reduce dust dispersion during packaging, handling, and feeding, making them suitable for big-bag feeding, silo storage, and continuous production lines.

Synergy Between Microfilling and Reactive Behavior

Ultrafine particles can fill the micro-pores within the material, optimize the particle size distribution, and, through chemical reactions, enhance the material’s density, strength, impermeability, wear resistance, and high-temperature performance.

Silica Fume Applications

Widely Used Across Industries

High-Performance Concrete

Used in bridges, port structures, tunnels, and precast components to enhance impermeability, chloride resistance, and durability.

UHPC (Ultra-High-Performance Concrete)

Improves particle size distribution and the interfacial transition zone, enhancing early strength, density, and surface quality.

Ultra-high-strength concrete (C120 and above)

It can be used to fill the internal pores of cement paste and improve the interface transition zone through secondary pozzolanic reactions.

High-Strength Precast Components

It helps improve the surface density, early strength, wear resistance, and dimensional stability of structural components.

Oil Well Cement

It can be used in oil well cement to help improve the material’s density, impermeability, abrasion resistance, and structural stability under high-temperature conditions.

Specialty Cement-Based Materials

Used in high-performance grouts, wear-resistant mortars, industrial flooring, and other specialty cement-based materials, providing both interface reinforcement and resistance to efflorescence.

FAQ

Packaging, Loading and Shipping FAQ

Answers to common purchasing questions about packaging, export documents, sample trials, loading and delivery.

For which applications is 96% Densified Silica Fume primarily suitable?

It is primarily suitable for UHPC, RPC, high-strength concrete, high-strength precast components, high-performance grouts, oil well cement, and other systems that require high purity and stability of Silica Fume.

Does densified Silica Fume perform better than the dispersible type?

Not necessarily. Densification primarily addresses issues related to transportation, loading, dust generation, and automated feeding. The final performance depends on whether the densified particles can fully open up during mixing. If the mixture lacks coarse aggregate shear or has insufficient mixing intensity, undensified or uncompacted products may yield more stable dispersion results.

What is the recommended dosage of 96% Silica Fume in UHPC?

Trial mix designs can begin with an admixture level of 15%–25% of the cement weight. The specific admixture dosage must be determined comprehensively based on cement reactivity, quartz fume gradation, water-to-binder ratio, water-reducing admixture compatibility, and target strength.

Can 96% Densified Silica Fume be used in high-performance grout?

Yes. High-purity Silica Fume can serve as a key component in the gel-binding system of high-performance grout. Initial trial mixes can start at 4%–6% of the total formulation weight, followed by a comprehensive evaluation of properties such as 3-day, 7-day, and 28-day strength, as well as impermeability and freeze-thaw resistance.

Can the product be supplied in accordance with ASTM C1240?

Production and testing can be conducted according to customer requirements and mutually agreed-upon technical specifications. Before placing an order, we recommend specifying the SiO₂, moisture content, loss on ignition, 45-μm sieve residue, activity index, bulk density, and packaging requirements.
