Abstract
The effects of fly ash on the properties of Magnesium Oxychloride Cement (MOC) have been studied. The experimental results indicated that the addition of fly ash changes flow property, setting times, compressive strength development, water resistance, volume stability and microstructures of MOC. It might be due to the change of dissolution rate of magnesium oxide and chemical reaction between MOC and fly ash. MOC containing a certain amount of fly ash has a potential to be utilized in the construction industry.
