Problems solved by technology

However, the study showed that these CNT dispersions are not stable over time and thus have to be used quickly for cement reinforcement applications; the dispersion process is still lengthy and difficult to implement on a larger scale

Embodiment 1

[0101] Embodiment 1 (comparison) : Introduction of CNTs in Portland cement-based concrete starting from CNT powder

[0102] A 0.025% by weight solution of the superplasticizer Superplast C-3 in water was prepared. CNT (from Arkema C100) was introduced into the solution for 30 minutes to obtain a CNT concentration of 0.01% by weight.

[0103] The dispersion was treated by hydrodynamic cavitation using a VGT-2.2 apparatus manufactured by VGT Servise, Izhevsk, Russia. Using 2.2 kW of energy, the treatment time was 1 hour and 40 minutes per liter of dispersion. The quality of the dispersion was monitored by light microscopy to confirm the absence of aggregates larger than 1 μm.

[0104] Starting from CEM type I cement of index 42.5 mixed with quartz sand in a 1:3 weight ratio, the CNT dispersion was used for the preparation of the concrete. Starting from the amount of cement, the amount of CNT dispersion used to provide a CNT percentage of 0.006% relative to the amount of c...

Embodiment 2

[0109] Example 2 :Depend on CW2-45 masterbatch begins to introduce CNTs in Portland cement-based concrete

[0110] A 0.01% by weight solution of the superplasticizer Superplast C-3 in water was prepared. By using a low speed mechanical mixer (500 rpm), by adding CW2-45 (CNT / carboxymethylcellulose 45 / 55) introduces CNTs into the solution to obtain a CNT concentration of 0.01% by weight.

[0111] The dispersion was treated by hydrodynamic cavitation using a VGT-2.2 apparatus manufactured by VGT Servise, Izhevsk, Russia. Using 2.2 kW of energy, the treatment time for one liter of dispersion was 1 hour and 40 minutes. The quality of the dispersion was monitored by light microscopy to confirm the absence of aggregates larger than 1 μm.

[0112] The CNT dispersion was used for the preparation of concrete as in Example 1 to provide a CNT percentage of 0.006% relative to the amount of cement and a water / cement ratio of 0.5.

[0113] In the same manner as in Example 1, concret...

Embodiment 3

[0116] Example 3 : Starting from CNT powder and nano silica in powder form, introduction of CNT and nano silica in Portland cement based concrete

[0117]Implement the same procedure as in Example 1 to prepare Superplast C-3 containing 0.01% superplasticizer and 0.01% Dispersion of C100CNT in water. Nanosilica was also introduced at a concentration of 0.03% in the form of a powder with an average size of 350 μm. The treatment time by hydrodynamic cavitation for one liter of CNT and nanosilica dispersion in a VTG-2.2 cavitator was 10 minutes with 2.2 kW energy.

[0118] The quality of the dispersion was monitored by light microscopy to confirm the absence of aggregates larger than 1 μm.

[0119] The CNT dispersion was used for the preparation of concrete as in Example 1 to provide a CNT content of 0.006% and a nano-silica content of 0.03% relative to the amount of cement, and a water / cement ratio of 0.5.

[0120] In the same manner as in Example 1, concrete samples were p...
