Formation of the properties of nano-modified concretes

摘要

Nanomodified concrete is obtained from multicomponent dry building mixes based on Portland cement containing nanoscale filler particles. This paper examines the cement-sand mixture activated in a high-energy mill as a nanomodifier. The result is the gain in strength of concrete in the initial hardening time. The influence of fractional characteristics of sand on the activation process is analyzed. Three sand samples of different deposits of the Kaliningrad region characterized by different size and content of dust and clay particles were studied. The results of tests of samples of fine-grained concrete with activated and non-activated components for the initial compressive strength at the age of 0-90 minutes after the preparation of the mixture are presented. It is noted that the mechanical activation of cement-sand mixture is most effective when there are large fractions in the activated sand.
