El presente artículo tiene como objetivo determinar la influencia de la adición del dióxido de titanio (TiO2) en el mortero de cemento Pórtland Tipo I. La investigación es descriptiva, correlacional, explicativo, con diseño experimental, longitudinal, prospectivo y estudio de cohorte. Se elaboró una mezcla patrón y tres mezclas de mortero con 5%, 7.5% y 10% de contenido de TiO2 como reemplazo del volumen de cemento para las propiedades autolimpiantes se realizó el ensayo de rodamina e intemperismo. La incorporación de dióxido de titanio disminuyó la resistencia a la compresión, incrementó la fluidez y tasa de absorción de agua; la prueba de rodamina dio que el mortero sin actividad fotocatalítico no contenía TiO2 porque no cumple con los factores de fotodegradación R4 y R26. Mediante la exposición de paneles al intemperismo favoreciendo la propiedad autolimpiante de los morteros con adición de TiO2 (5%).

This article presents studies that were performed in order to improve the subsurface properties of horizontally-formed cementitious composites using tin(II) fluoride nanoparticles. The main aim of the study was to solve the problem of the decrease in subsurface properties caused by mortar bleeding and the segregation of the aggregate along the height of the overlay. The article also aims to highlight the patch grabbing difficulties that occur during the process of forming horizontally-formed cementitious composites. Four specimens were analyzed: one reference sample and three samples modified with the addition of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% of tin(II) fluoride nanoparticles in relation to the cement mass. To analyze the mechanical properties of the specimens, non-destructive (ultrasonic pulse velocity) and destructive tests (flexural tensile strength, compressive strength, abrasion resistance, pull-off strength) were performed. It was indicated that due to the addition of the tin(II) fluoride, it was possible to enhance the subsurface tensile strength and abrasion resistance of the tested cementitious composites. To confirm the obtained macroscopic results, the porosity of the subsurface was measured using SEM. It was also shown that the addition of the tin(II) fluoride nanoparticles did not reduce its flexural and compressive strength. The results show that horizontally-formed cementitious composites with the addition of 1.0% of tin(II) fluoride nanoparticles in relation to the cement mass obtained the most effective mechanical performance, especially with regard to subsurface properties.

AbstractSignificant research has been done in recent decades in the field of the dispersion of carbon nanotubes in aqueous solutions and the reinforcement of ordinary Portland cement (OPC). However, the cementitious mixture, as an alkaline environment, easily leads to the re-agglomeration of dispersed single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and influences their enhancing effects. Humic acid (HA) is a type of natural organic matter which can assist the stabilization of dispersed single-walled carbon nanotubes in cementitious composites. The present study characterizes the influence of HA in stabilizing the dispersion of SWCNTs by means of ultraviolet spectrophotometer tests. The fluidity of fresh cement slurry and mechanical performance of hardened OPC pastes were measured to better illustrate the dispersion of SWCNTs in real cement composites. The results not only reveal that the addition of an alkaline environment to the SWCNT suspensions results in a rapid decrease of the dispersion, but also suggest that the appropriate content of HA (0.12 wt.%) can play a significant role in stabilizing the dispersion of SWCNTs. When the mixed hybrid of SWCNTs and HA with a concentration of HA/c equal to 0.05 wt.% is used, the fluidity of the fresh cement slurry experiences a maximum decline and this mixture content of materials will dramatically increase the compressive and flexural strength by about 31% and 48%, which indicates that more SWCNTs are in a dispersed state under this concentration. SEM images further prove that a suitable HA/c can inhibit the expansion of cracks in the cementitious composites.

Cement manufacturing, which is partially responsible for environmental and health risks as well as the greenhouse gas emissions, is a binder industry that needs energy and raw material. To decrease the needing, this study develops nano-modified eco-friendly cementitious composites including industrial solid wastes and/or by-products. For this purpose, ordinary Portland cement (OPC) was partially replaced with 70 wt% of fly ash (FA), Nano metakaolin (NMK) was incorporated at a rate of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 % as partial replacement by weight of FA to take advantage of the great role of nano materials in improving the mechanical and physical properties of cement based materials. Compressive strength, flexural strength, and capillary water absorption coefficient have been studied at 28 days of curing according to the international ASTM standards. Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) was used to study the phase composition/decomposition. The microstructure characteristics of the hardened samples were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive analytical x-ray unit (EDAX). The results revealed that the partial replacement of cement by 70% of FA has reduced both compressive and flexural strengths by about 45% in addition; the water absorption has been increased by about 175% as compared to the OPC. The replacement of FA by different amounts of NMK compensate for the loss in strength by about 75%. Furthermore, NMK has considerably improved the microstructure and reduced the water absorption by 86%. The study concluded that, it is possible to substitute 70% of the weight of the cement in the production of eco-friendly cementitious composites with improved mechanical performance attaining 88% of the corresponding performance of the hydrated OPC. The developed composites can be considered as green binders and recommended for various applications in construction industry.
