Elkem Microsilica®
CONCRETE
Chloride
Penetration
Many investigations have been
made which document the
dramatic reduction in the rate
of chloride diffusion which is
achieved by using Elkem
Microsilica in concrete (Figs.
1, 2 ,3).The reduction is
mainly due to the refinement
of the concrete pore
structure. The use of Elkem
Microsilica reduces the
amount of continuous
capillary pores.
