Abstract

The construction sector is responsible for 25 % of global greenhouse gas emissions and consumes 50 % of the world's energy. This paper addresses the use of nanomaterials in housing construction, comparing their influence at the technical-structural level. Materials such as titanium dioxide, carbon nanotubes, nanosilica, nanocellulose, nanoalumina, and nanoclays were analyzed. It was obtained that these nanomaterials can improve the structural, thermal, and functional properties of construction materials. In addition, they are related to increased durability, increased mechanical strength (>20 %), reduced thermal conductivity, and self-cleaning capability. Therefore, the use of nanomaterials promises to improve the sustainability and efficiency of housing construction.

建筑业中的纳米材料：概述纳米材料的特性及其在房屋建筑中的贡献

建筑行业排放的温室气体占全球总量的 25%，消耗的能源占全球总量的 50%。本文探讨了纳米材料在房屋建筑中的应用，比较了它们在技术结构层面的影响。本文分析了二氧化钛、碳纳米管、纳米二氧化硅、纳米纤维素、纳米氧化铝和纳米粘土等材料。结果表明，这些纳米材料可以改善建筑材料的结构、热和功能特性。此外，它们还能提高耐久性、增加机械强度（20%）、降低导热性和自清洁能力。因此，纳米材料的使用有望提高住房建设的可持续性和效率。
