Effect of fly ash microsphere on the rheology and microstructure of alkali-activated fly ash/slag pastes
Abstract
Abstract The highly viscous property of alkali silicate-activated cements is one of the critical challenges that hinder their wide application. The present study focuses on ameliorating the rheological performance of sodium silicate-activated fly ash/slag pastes by using fly ash microsphere (FAM), which are highly spherical particles collected from fly ash with electrostatic adsorption classification technology. The FAM particles work as ‘ball-bearings’ in the pastes to reduce the internal friction between fly ash and slag grains, and meanwhile mitigate the agglomeration of flocs and fragmentation to release the locked water. The interrelationship between the FAM particle geometry and plastic viscosity of the paste is well described by the Krieger-Dougherty equation, which supports the proposed mechanisms of ‘ball-bearings’ effects. FAM can work as an inorganic dispersing agent to improve the workability of alkali-activated cement products for a variety of application aspects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
