Novel properties of nano-engineered cementitious materials with fullerene buckyballs

In the present work, important subject of improvement strength and durability future generation smart nano-engineered cementitious composites is evoked through incorporation another kind nanomaterial like fullerene buckyballs (C60). This research dedicated to analysis - at nanoscale processus embedding C60 nanomaterials in calcium silicate hydrates (C–S–H). Using molecular dynamics simulations, mechanical response with density dispersion molecules as well porosity C–S–H are evaluated. Under shear stress, nanostructure shows an increase along x y directions due long chains Ca–O bond.
