WITH REACTIVE SILICA FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE
Pozzocrete 83 is a Ultrafine processed fly ash designed for producing High Performance Concrete (HIPC) with high early and 28 days strength, highly improved workability and high durability. It is a potential microsilica replacement and can be used in dosages of 5 to 8% in HPC. It is obtained by careful selection through mechanical air-classification of coal fired thermal power station ash
Salient Features of Pozzocrete® 83
5% max retained on 45 microns.
Specific surface area minimum 475 m2/kg.
Water Reduction 8-10% less as compared with OPC mix in Standard Mortar and 10-15% less in CONCRETE.
Gives workable mix at water cement ratio as low as 0.25 at comparatively lesser admixture dosage.
RCPT Value or Coulomb value at par with micro silica mix. 6) Higher early strength as compared to Silica fume mix.
Substantial 24 hours or One day strength.
High performance concrete can be produced at much lower cost as compared with silica fume mix as price of Pozzocrete 83 is less than 1/4th of silica fume and on the top of it admixture dosage can be reduced by at least 0.1% which is substantial saving in case of PC based admixture.
Pozzocrete 83 is Ultrafine fly ash with ivory colored appearance and when touched gives feel of talcum powder or Boric Powder. After rigorous testing through several trial mixes, the product is now being successfully used by major construction companies for producing HPC. The superfine fly ash particles in combination to the retained spherical shape lead to a highly reduced water demand in concrete, thereby achieving the following
