The use of geopolymer-based concrete has many advantages over conventional cement
concrete. Geopolymer, which derives its basic ingredients from industrial waste, has …

The intensive development of construction in recent years and the increasing demands on
the durability and service life of buildings have increasingly caused construction scientists to …

This review paper intends to synthesise the data published in the literature on the uses of
different types of nanomaterials in cementitious materials. According to ASTM, depending on …

Graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) is a cheap impermeable carbon-based nanoplatelet with
large surface-to-volume ratio and has been exploited in polymer materials to improve their …

The study of the application of nanotechnology in the construction industry and building
structures is one of the most prominent priorities of the research community. The outstanding …

To further improve the utilization rate of fly ash cenospheres (FAC) in cement-based
systems, this paper introduced adopting nano-SiO 2 (NS) particles to develop a new high …

The influence of nanoclay (NC) and calcined nanoclay (CNC) on the mechanical and

This paper presents the effects of two mixing methods of nanosilica on physical and
mechanical properties of flyash-based geopolymer matrices containing nanosilica (NS) at …

Cement pastes and mortars were prepared by replacing ordinary Portland cement with
different dosages of biomass fly ashes (0, 10, 20 and 30% BFA) whilst in dry condition. The …

This study is aimed to evaluate the transport properties of a cement composite incorporated
with graphene oxide (GO). GO is a 2-dimensional nano material, enriched with reactive …
