Popis: In present research, the cement-rice husk ash composites were prepared and characterized. The samples were added fiber optic and rice husk ash was used as replacement cementitious materials at 10, 20, 30 and 40 wt% of portland cement. The samples were demolded after 24 h casting and cured in saturated lime water for 3 days. After these periods, the samples were wrapped with plastics films for 7 and 28 days. Then, samples were dried in air for 24 h. The chemical compositin of portland cement and rice husk ash were characterized by using x-ray fluorence spectrometry (XRF). Additionally, dried samples were analysized phase compositions and crystalline structure by using x-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. The chemical element compositions and microstructure were detected by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. Moreover, The effect of rice husk ash in these cement composites were investigated in this research.
