- Abstract
Nanosilica and diatomite are pozzolanic resources rich in SiO2. In this study, the purpose of this study was to improve the moisture resistance of the specimen by producing a mixed material using pozzolanic materials and calcium stearate and adding it to cement mortar while stirring. The results showed that the hydration reaction was not activated when calcium stearate adhered to the fine particles of nanosilica; it existed simply in the form of a filler inside the specimen. Diatomite, due to its atypical particles and porosity, may have greater water tightness than nanosilica because of the pozzolanic reaction in particles to which calcium stearate is not attached.
