TLDR
In this paper, the effects of nano-silica incorporation on an eco-friendly alkali activated slag-fly ash blends were investigated, and the results indicated that as the nano silica content increases, the slump flow is significantly reduced, and reaction process is slightly retarded according to the setting time and isothermal calorimetry results.

Pozzolanicity of fly ash modified by fluidized bed reactor–vapor deposition

TL;DR: In this article, a fluidized bed reactor-vapor deposition (FBR-VD) was designed to modify fly ash (FA) by using NaOH solution as the activation material, which accelerates the early-age pozzolanic reaction of FA without affecting the workability of the paste.
