Resumen:
Due their high content of silica in an amorphous state the glass, in theory, can behave as pozzolanic material when are finely ground. This opens up an interesting way of reusing these materials in the Portland cement industry (CP), especially considering that solid urban waste (RSU) in Argentina contains between 3 and 5% by weight of glass. This paper studies the behavior of ground white glass from bottles, in compares that corresponding to micro-silice (MS), with recognized activity. The objective of this paper is analyzed the structural differences, mineralogical composition, size and particle shape of the MS and the ground glass in terms of reactivity and pozzolanic activity. Experimental results on pastas and mortars with variable percentages of both additions (8, 16 and 24%) are presented. The kinetics of early hydration by conduction calorimetry, the potential pozzolanity by the Frattini test and the X-ray diffraction (DXR) paste hydration monitoring are analyzed. Fluidity and compressive strength results are shown on standar mortars at 2, 7 and 28 days. In general the incorporation of ground glass develops its reactivity more slowly and to a lesser extent than the MS, however it does not reduce the fluidity of the mortars and contributes significantly to the compressive strength.
