Rice hull-derived silica: applications in Portland cement and mullite whiskers
Silica was extracted from rice hulls by three processing routes, starting with acid treatment followed by burning and milling. The amorphous white silica powder showed a surface area of 260 to 480 m²/g, purity above 99% and average particle size of 2.0 to 0.6 mm. This silica is suitable for the prep...
