Research on the Effect of Superfine Powder Micro Bead on the Properties of High-strength Concrete

A sub-micron spherical powder material-micro bead, which has good water reduction, filling and enhancement effect, could be used as active mineral admixture in high-strength concrete. The affection of micro bead on the hydration temperature rise, mechanical properties, and shrinkage properties of high-strength concrete were studied, and the results showed that: micro bead could reduce the highest temperature peak of concrete, and at the low water-cement ratio, its small dosage could develop the compressive strength of concrete, and after instead of silica fume with suitable dosage, it could reduce the shrinkage of high-strength concrete.
