Dispersion of CaCO3 nanoparticles by sonication and surfactant treatment for application in fly ash–cement systems (2014, background): “Thus far, most studies have focused on nanosilica and demonstrated its effectiveness in improving the earlyage properties [26, 39, 45].”
Nanoclay-modified asphalt materials: Preparation and characterization (2011, positive): “Other researchers have also initiated investigations into the use of nanotechnology in Portland cement concrete [27–34].”
Influence of SiO2, TiO2 and Fe2O3 nanoparticles on the properties of fly ash blended cement mortars (2020, background): “This enhances the crystal orientation of Ca(OH)2 between the hardened cement-fly ash paste and the aggregate [55].”
State-of-the-art report on use of nano-materials in concrete (2014, background): “Hosseini et al. (2011), Said et al. (2012) and Ji (2005) observed such effects in the case of nano-SiO2.”
Modification of cement-based materials with nanoparticles (2013, background): “With the incorporation of nanoSiO2, the strength gain of cement-based materials can be improved due to its hydration seeding effect and high pozzolanic activity [8,10,26,27], which result in a higher amount of C–S–H gel and more densified bulk structure [28].”
