Abstract

Nanomaterials have shown tremendous applications in different sectors. Nanomaterials of different size and shape when added in small amounts to cementitious systems like cement paste, mortars and concretes, there is an enormous improvements in their properties. Nanomaterials increase mechanical properties, decrease pore size and pore size distribution, modify microstructure, accelerate hydration reactions, increase durability, etc. Effects on the properties of cementitious system have been discussed. The effect of number of nanomaterials like nanosilica, nanocarbon, nanoclay and nano calcium carbonate on the properties of cementitious systems has been discussed.
