Abstract:
The rice husk ash(RHA)and silica(SiO2)nanoparticles are prepared from rice husk charcoal(RHC)by the methods of ventilated calcining and chemical precipitation, respectively, to remove the residual carbon which is harmful to cement composites. The structures and morphologies of these products are investigated by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning/transmission electron microscopy and N2 adsorption-desorption analyzer. The results show that the as-produced RHA and SiO2 nanoparticles exist in amorphous phase without residual carbon, and exhibit porous structures with specific surface areas of 170.19 and 248.67 m2/g, respectively. The micro particles of RHA are aggregated by numerous loosely packed SiO2 gel particles with the diameter of 50 to 100 nm. The SiO2 nanoparticles are well dispersed with the average size of about 30 nm. Both the RHA and SiO2 nanoparticles can significantly reduce the conductivity of saturated Ca(OH)2 solution and increase the early strength of the cement composites. They also exhibit high pozzolanic activity, indicating that they can be used as ecological nano mineral admixtures.
