Influence of Nano-Clay on the Performance of phosphoaluminate cement

Article Preview

Abstract:

The influence of nano-clay on the physical and mechanical properties of the phosphoaluminate cement (PALC) was studied in the paper. The experimental results showed that nano-clay changed the water requirement of normal consistency and the setting time of phosphoaluminate cement. However its soundness was not affected by adding nano-clay. With 3% nano-clay added by weight of cement, PALC has an optimum compressive strength.
