| Popis: | Graphene nanoplatelets have unique mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties that render them ideal reinforcing materials. The attractive properties of graphene have led to intensive research on graphene-polymer nanocomposites. However, very little work has been reported on using graphene in manufacturing multifunctional cement-based nanocomposites. This paper attempts to bridge recent findings of science-based discovery and nanoscience to the ancient and challenging technology of cement. Utilizing a holistic approach (i.e., integrating modeling, synthesis, and analysis of cement) is a challenge that cannot be fully addressed in one paper or one research experiment. Therefore, this paper presents a general framework for using a system approach to study cement-based materials. The paper highlights primary findings in manufacturing and characterizing graphene-cement nanocomposites (GCNCs). A bottom-up approach is used to correlate the atomic assembly of GCNCs with their macroscopic properties. ... |
