Abstract

The mechanical properties and self-monitoring capability of cement mortar containing nano-SiO2 or nano-Fe2O3 were experimentally studied and compared with that of plain cement paste. The results showed that the compressive and flexural strengths measured at the 28th day of cement mortar containing nano-SiO2 or nano-Fe 2O3 were both higher than that of plain cement mortar with the same water-binder ratio (w/b). Furthermore, the self-monitoring capability of cement mortar with nano-Fe2O3 is also presented in this paper.
