Samenvatting

In this study two different types of nano-SiO2 were applied in self-compacting concrete (SCC), both having similar particle size distributions (PSD) but produced in two different processes (pyrogenic and colloidal precipitation). The influence of nano-SiO2 on transport phenomena in SCC was investigated using the accelerated rapid chloride migration test at different ages (28 and 91 days) as well as the long-term diffusion test. The freeze-thaw resistance, expressed by the scaling factor (Sn), was also studied. Additionally, the microstructural characteristics of the hardened concretes were investigated by FEG-SEM and MIP analyses. The obtained results demonstrate that the addition of 3.8% bwoc of nano-SiO2 improves the SCC durability due to the refinement of the microstructure and the reduction in the connectivity of the pores. Additionally, a small difference in the reactivity of both types of applied nano-SiO2 additives was demonstrated.
