The research on the pozzolanic activity according to the firing temperature of the rice straw ash

소성볏짚의 소성온도별 포졸란 반응성에 관한 연구

The purpose of this study was to investigate pozzolanic activity according to the firing temperature of the rice straw ash. In order to measure amount of SiO2 of rice straw ash, XRF(X-ray fluorescence) analysis was tested. Also to evaluate properties of mortars using rice straw ash, mortar flow, cement setting time, compressive strength was tested. As a results, as the mortar with a mixture ratio of rice straw ash up to 15% was found to have a compressive strength superior to that of plain mortar.
