We elucidate the mechanisms by which multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)
influence the microstructure, fracture behavior, and hydration of cement paste. We disperse …

This review explored areas related to the use of concrete-based and cement-based
composite materials that can protect against electromagnetic radiation. Based on their …

Piezoresistivity is the most commonly used sensing principle in cement-based smart
composites for strain-monitoring applications. Nonetheless, the need for external electric …

As nanomaterials, carbon nano-fillers have manyfold benefits in concrete applications, and
while of considerable research interest, their impacts on cement phases are still not fully …

The use of nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes, in cement-based composites has
been a topic of considerable attention in recent years due to their potential to monitor civil …

In the never-ending quest, for a high-performance cement composite, Nano Engineered
Cement Composites (NECC) are raising great expectations and garnering quite a bit of …

The electrical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNT) cement-based composites have been
modeled in previous works by circuit models or homogenization theories. An alternative …

Featured Application Cement paste blended with carbon nanotubes for self-sensing
applications. Abstract Due to their exceptional electrical properties, carbon nanotubes …

Surfactants such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) are used to improve the dispersity of
carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in aqueous solutions. The surfactant concentration in CNT …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are considered among the ideal modifiers for cement-based
materials. This is because CNTs can be used as a microfiber to compensate for the …
