摘要
Sugar cane bagasse ash (SCBA) is generated as a combustion by-product from boilers of sugar and alcohol factories. Composed mainly of silica, this by-product can be used as a mineral admixture in mortar and concrete. Several studies have shown that the use of SCBA as partial Portland cement replacement can improve some properties of cementitious materials. However, it is not yet clear if these improvements are associated to physical or chemical effects. This work investigates the pozzolanic and filler effects of a residual SCBA in mortars. Initially, the influence of particle size of SCBA on the packing density, pozzolanic activity of SCBA and compressive strength of mortars was analyzed. In addition, the behavior of SCBA was compared to that of an insoluble material of the same packing density. The results indicate that SCBA may be classified as a pozzolanic material, but that its activity depends significantly on its particle size and fineness. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
