Influence of fumed silica on the properties of ultra-high performace cement composite
Hrbáčová, Markéta ; Švec, Jiří (referee) ; Novotný, Radoslav (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the properties of concrete based on reactive powdered materials. Pyrogenic nanosilica (Aerosil 200, Aerosil 380) was added to the concrete in various volume ratios. The aim was to design and prepare a series of samples in order to determine their basic properties, and to determine the behavior of selected samples during penetration by a high-speed projectile compared to the reference sample. In order to determine the strength of the samples, compression and tensile bending tests were performed. The so-called multihit test was used to determine ballistic resistance. The differential effect factor was also determined experimentally and compared with the reference sample. An electron microscope was used to monitor the behavior of the fibers in the binder as well as the binder itself. Hydration curves for individual samples were generated using calorimetric measurements. The bulk density of the samples and the spills during their preparation were also monitored. The resulting strength of the nanosilica samples did not show higher values compared to the reference sample. The results of the multihit test did not show considerable changes compared to the reference composite.
