Material Development of Nano Silica Indonesia for Concrete Mix

Abstract:

Based on data from Indonesian Directorate General of Mineral and Coal Technology, popular sources of silica sand in Indonesia can be found: Bangka Belitung, Pangkal Pinang,South Sumatra, Lampung, West Kalimantan, South Kalimantan, West Java, and East Java. Unfortunately, the use of silica sand in concrete mix is still limited as filler material. The challenge is then to explore the use of such silica sand, for instance in the form of nano silica. This research work explores silica sand from: Bangka Belitung, Pangkal Pinang, Lampung, West Java, East Java, West Kalimantan and South Kalimantan. The selected silica sand are then processed by the novel method developed by Indonesia Center for Ceramics using Polishing Liquid Milling Technology. The result is expected to contribute in the development of increased added value of locally available silica sand and to advancing application of nano silica for concrete.
