Influence of carbon nanotubes addition onto the mechanical properties of restoration mortars
Update: 2013-07-10
Description
For the first time, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been added to a grout. The samples were prepared with up to 0.8 wt% of CNTs, with respect to the binder, and were characterized by three-point bending and compressive tests. The results showed that these additions continuously increased the flexural and the compressive strength, as well as the fracture energy, for a CNTs content up to 0.12 wt% with respect to the binder.
