Abstract
In this study is explored the use of construction and demolition waste as fine aggregate in mortars. The addition of nano-graphene oxide (0.1%wt) has also been evaluated. Tests were conducted to determine their density, humidity content, water absorption capacity and open void porosity (using water absorption) and the micro and nano-porosity using Hg intrusion and N2 absorption techniques, as well as their flexural and compressive strength and resistance to acid attacks. The mechanical properties of mortars manufactured with standard sand were better (30%) than made with waste aggregate. Mortars with both aggregates can be classified as M20. Nano-Graphene oxide acts as a filler, reducing the volume of macro and micro pores, thereby increasing the mechanical performance, especially when recycled aggregates are used (30% the flexural strength for recycled aggregates and 4% for standard sand). The addition of nano-graphene oxide reduces the transmission channels of acid within mortar.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
