Accelerated urbanization drives demand growth for Ultrafine Micro Silica
The construction industry is an industry that revolves around the design, construction, decoration and management of buildings. With the economic growth, the country's urbanization process is accelerating, the construction industry continues to develop at a high speed, and the requirements for building materials are getting higher and higher.
Ultrafine Micro Silica can effectively improve the quality of building materials and play an important role in the construction industry. Ultrafine Micro Silica can be used in mortar and concrete, for high-rise buildings, seaport terminals, reservoir dams, water conservancy culverts, railway road bridges, subways, tunnels, airport runways, concrete roads and coal mine roadways, etc. Ultrafine Micro Silica can fill the gaps that cannot be filled by traditional micro silica fume, so that the strength of concrete can be improved again, and the strength and durability of concrete can be improved again. It has high compression resistance, bending resistance, impermeability, corrosion resistance, impact resistance and wear resistance. Ultrafine Micro Silica can fill the pores between cement particles, and at the same time form a gel with the hydration product, and react with the alkaline material magnesium oxide to form a gel.
With the acceleration of urbanization, the demand for Ultrafine Micro Silica in urbanized buildings continues to increase, which drives the development of the Ultrafine Micro Silica industry.
