Study of Nano Additives in Concrete mix Proportioning Using Nano Particle

Abstract

This research literature reviews on nanomaterials in concrete. Now, the conventional concrete Properties of nanomaterial utilization have been introduced to various attentions to increase. Ultimately, as an introduction, the nanomaterial is increasing the strength and durability of the Concrete. The nanomaterial is described as the material that includes the particle size Less than 200 nm. While the investigation of Concrete in the importance of nanomaterials, the demand is at least 500 nm in size. This Improves binding effect and also helps to reduce the cement content by partially replacing Cement on a weight basis to the addition of ultrafine nanomaterials, providing a very dense Concrete and automatically reduces the formation of microspores by acting as a filler agent in the purpose of ultrafine particles of nanomaterial in the UHPS (Ultra-high pressure Systems) structure. Furthermore, this review analyzes the resources and developments of the Concrete by using nanomaterials the nanoparticles as concrete additives have the main Advantages as the reduction of a set time including increased strength and thermal durability in concrete materials. This review also analyzes documented investigations of SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, TiO2, CaCO3, and clay nanoparticles, and reviews beneficial alteration mechanisms and commercial purposes, including cost and distribution. For the experimental investigation, various mixes of M40grade concrete were cast. The used of Fly has in concrete as a cement replacement   for 0%, 10%, 20%.30% and Nano silica used as 0.5% & 0.3% in concrete. For compressive strength, split tensile strength, Flexural strength, and the concrete. Six specimens were cast for each concrete test. These tests were conducted for the 7 days and 28 days of hot air curing. The results indicate that the Nano concrete is can be used as the structural grade concrete.
