Pore Characteristics of Pavement Concrete with Nano-Particles

Abstract:

Pore characteristics of pavement concrete with nano-particles (TiO2 or SiO2) are experimentally studied and compared with that of plain pavement concrete. The test results indicate that the addition of nano-particles improves the pore structure of concrete. The refined extent of pore structure of concretes increase with decreasing content of nano-particles. The pore structure of concrete with nano-TiO2 is better than that of concrete with the same content of nano-SiO2.
