About Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology is a method of understanding, controlling and reconstructing the properties of materials. It helps to create materials with fundamental properties and functions. Nanotechnology consists of two main approaches called the top-down approach and the bottom-up approach.

1. In the top-down approach, large structures reduced in size to the nano-scale. Their properties remain unchanged.
2. In the bottom-up approach, materials engineered from molecules through a process of assembly.

Nanostructured products can fix current construction problems at a much faster pace. They also help construction materials to achieve self-cleaning, self-healing and high ductility.

Effects of nanostructured materials in the construction industry:

• Nanostructured materials have a high surface area to volume ratio. Provides potential ability for tremendous chemical reactivity process.
• They also promote cement hydration due to their high reactivity.

• In concrete products, nanostructured materials act as filler.
• Nano-SiO2 (Nano-silicon dioxide) material has found to improve workability and strength of concrete.
• Increase the resistance to water penetration.
• Control the leaching of calcium.
• With the addition of nano-sio2 in concrete products, the compressive strength will gradually increase compared to conventional concrete admixtures.
• Nanostructured materials also act as an activator to promote pozzolanic reactions.
• Another nanostructured material, Nano-TiO2 (Nano-titanium oxide) has proven very effective for the self-cleaning of concrete.
• Carbon nanotubes/nanofibers are the potential materials used as nano-reinforcements in cement based products.
