Advantages of Using Silica Fume
- High early compressive strength
- High tensile flexural strength and modulus of elasticity
- Very low permeability to chloride and water intrusion
- Enhanced durability
- Increased toughness
- Increased abrasion resistance on decks, floors, overlays and marine structures
- Superior resistance to chemical attack from chlorides, acids, nitrates and sulfates and life-cycle cost efficiencies
- Higher bond strength
- High electrical resistivity and low permeability
