Nanotechnology for Improved Concrete Performance
Also Known As:
ACI SP-335:2019 is a standard that encompasses various research papers presented at the ACI Convention in 2016. The standard is meant to provide insights and findings on the use of nanotechnology in concrete to enhance its performance and properties.
The standard includes a table of contents with ten research papers, each addressing different aspects of nanotechnology in concrete. Some of the topics covered include multi-scale fiber reinforcement for cracking resistance, tailoring the sensing capabilities of carbon nanotube reinforced mortar sensors, performance of fiber-reinforced carbon nanotubes-nanofibers composites, investigation methods for characterizing nanoparticles in concrete, prediction of effective properties of fly ash-based geopolymers, strength recovery through nanosilica coated polypropylene fiber reinforcement, hydration and strength of cement pastes with different nanoparticles, and titania and silica nanoparticle-modified coatings for cementitious materials.
The standard showcases the use of nanotechnology in concrete and its potential to improve various properties such as crack resistance, sensing capabilities, strength recovery, and more. It provides a comprehensive understanding of the different methods and approaches used in nanotechnology research for concrete applications.
