β¦ Synopsis
Additions of colloidal silicas and silicates were added to portland cement and tricalcium silicate pastes to assess their pozzolanic reactivity. These materials show early reductions of calcium hydroxide consistent with a rapid pozzolanic reaction. High early strengths were generally observed with siliceous additions but later strengths were less affected, although somewhat variable. Colloidal silicas have very high water requirements which must be overcome.

Properties such as porosity, pore-slze distribution, surface area and drying shrinkage are determined for silica fume-portland cement blends (0-30% silica fume) cured from I to 180 days at w/(c+sf) of 0.25 and 0.45. Porosity was measured by helium, mercury and water techniques. It is shown that in p
