Development of carbon nanotube-reinforced ultra-high performance concrete

Development of carbon nanotube-reinforced ultra-high performance concrete

With the aim of developing an Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) with a compressive strength of more than 200MPa, and a tensile force beyond 30MPa, Carbon nanotubes (CNT) were added to investigate the effect of the CNT on the mechanical strength of the UHPC. Various mixes with 2 different kinds...
