Mechanical and Microstructural Properties of Composite Mortars with Lime, Silica Fume and Rice Husk Ash

Ramalingam Malathy et al.

Summary: A mixture of hydraulic lime and pozzolanic material can be used as a binder to reduce the environmental impact of cement production. The introduction of pozzolans in the lime mortar improves its strength and microstructural properties. Lime composite mortars achieve higher compressive strength and exhibit well-developed microstructures compared to pure lime mortar.

Mechanisms of carbon black in multifunctional cement matrix: Hydration and microstructure perspectives

Qian Zhang et al.

Summary: Carbon black (CB) has a promising prospect for producing multifunctional building materials. However, there is a lack of systematic research on the influence of CB on hydration and microstructure, with existing literature mainly focusing on electrical properties. This study thoroughly examined the variations in fluidity, strength, hydration, porosity, and microstructure of CB-cement materials. The findings revealed that CB has a clear negative effect on fluidity and early flexural strength, but proper CB increases compressive strength, and optimizes pore structure and the interfacial transition zone.

Angeliki Eirini Dimou et al.

Summary: The addition of graphene oxide (GO), reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and carboxylated graphene (GCOOH) to lime-pozzolan-cement pastes significantly improves the mechanical properties. The compressive strength of all the pastes is increased, with the highest increase observed in the rGO reinforced paste. The addition of GO and rGO also enhances the flexural strength of the pastes.

Residual piezoresistive properties of mortars containing carbon nanomaterials exposed to high temperatures

Gustavo Henrique Nalon et al.

Summary: This study investigated the feasibility of using smart cement-based composites containing MWCNT or CBN for Structural Health Monitoring of fire-damaged concrete structures. The results showed that the sensing ability of the composites was enhanced after exposure to 200 degrees C, with composites containing 0.8% or 1.2% MWCNT maintaining self-sensing ability up to 400 degrees C. Composites with 6% or 9% CBN exhibited residual self-sensing ability after exposure to temperatures up to 600 degrees C, with 9% CBN composites showing the interesting ability of self-detection of fire damage.
