[PDF] Carbon Nanotube Based Self-sensing Concrete …

2021-1-2 · This research project developed self-sensing carbon-nanotube (CNT)/cement composites. The piezoresitive property of carbon nanotubes enables the composite to detect the stress/stain inside the pavement. Meanwhile, CNTs can also work as the reinforcement elements to improve the strength and toughness of the concrete pavement. Experimental results show that the electrical resistance of the ...

Electrical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes Cement ...

Cement pastes reinforced with Multi-Walled carbon NanoTubes (MWNTs) are smart materials with piezoresistivity properties. Adding carbon nanotubes to the cement matrix, in fact, the electrical resistivity of cementitious composites changes with the stress conditions under static and dynamic loads. This particular behaviour can be used to evaluate the stress level in reinforced concrete ...

Carbon Dioxide Uptake by Concrete Modified With …

The incorporation of carbon nanotubes to Portland cement paste could modify the transport properties of the matrix. In fact, it was shown that interfacial interactions between the hydration products and multi-walled carbon nanotubes occur; and it was observed the insertion of multi-walled carbon nanotubes between the hydration products.

Current and Potential Applications of Carbon …

Carbon nanotubes are already being used to control or enhance conductivity in polymers and are added to anti-static packaging. The most popular current use for CNTs is structural reinforcement. They are added to other materials like rebar to concrete because of their high strength, low weight, and flexibility.

Effects of Carbon Nanotubes on the Properties of ...

Almost 41% improvement in compressive strength was gained by the addition of carbon nanotubes. SEM image of lightweight concrete shows CNTs were almost dispersed homogeneously within the concrete structure. SEM image of the composite also shows the presence of the C-S-H structure surrounding the CNTs, that confirms the cites of nanotubes for ...

2020-12-26 · This work aims to investigate the effects of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the strength and electrical properties of cement mortar. MWCNTs were added to cement mortar in four different concentrations: 0.00 wt.%, 0.01 wt.%, 0.015 wt.%, and 0.02 wt.% by the mass of cement. The consistency, density, setting time and compressive and flexural strength of mixes were tested and …
