Exploration of mechanical properties of modified nanometer concrete

Abstract

To study the mechanical properties of modified nanometer concrete, several different nanomaterials were first listed, then these nanomaterials were added into concrete respectively, and the compressive strengths and flexural strengths of concretes in each case were calculate. Subsequently, the obtained data were drawn into a broken line graph, with the abscissa as the incorporation amount of polymer materials and the ordinate as the compressive strength and flexural strength of concrete respectively. It can be concluded from the image that both mechanical properties were improved with the increase of incorporation amount of nanometer material. In particular, when the incorporation amount reached 1%, the compressive strength and flexural strength of both modified ordinary concrete and modified fly ash concrete reached the maximum value of 50-60 Mpa. Consequently, the use of nanomaterials can improve the mechanical properties of concrete.
