Surface-modified graphite nanomaterials for improved reinforcement efficiency in cementitious paste (2013, background): “Recent investigations have also demonstrated the value of carbon nanomaterials [16–32] in cementitious matrices.”
Properties of interfacial transition zones (ITZs) in concrete containing recycled mixed aggregate (2017, background): “similar in all the constituents analysed and concurred with earlier reports on natural [25, 29, 32], recycled crushed concrete [2, 13-15] and clay-based (sanitary ware and bricks) aggregate [2, 25].”
Interfacial transition zones in recycled aggregate concrete with different mixing approaches (2012, unknown): “The polishing was considered completed when the measured root-mean-square roughness of the sample surface was lower than one third of the average indentation depth, which could avoid the effect of surface roughness on the nanoindentation results [24].”
A review on the mechanical properties of cement-based materials measured by nanoindentation (2015, background): “Moreover, nanoindentation has been extended to characterize the microstructural mechanical properties of blended cement pastes by nanosilica [20,37,38,53,111], silica fume [27,75], fly ash [18,27,75,94,95], slag [18,45,94,95] and metakaolin [18,28], as well as alkali-activated cementitious materials”
