Abstract:
The papers in this issue are concerned with various aspects of nanotechnology in cement and concrete. Among the topics discussed are the exploratory investigation of nanomaterials, a laboratory study of a self-healing cementitious composite, nanocement enhancement of reactive powder concrete, nanocellulose and microcellulose fibers, nanotechnology to manipulate mortar performance, nanoporous thin film technology, calcium silicate hydrate, molecular dynamics of hydrated cement, carbon nanofibers and nanotubes in cementitious composites, nanoengineering ultra-high-performance concrete, and a road map for research for nanotechnology-based concrete materials.
