    Nanoconcrete (also spelled "nano concrete"' or "nano-concrete") is a class of materials that contains Portland cement particles that are no greater than 100 μm [88] and particles of silica no greater than 500 μm, which fill voids that would otherwise occur in normal concrete, thereby substantially increasing the material's strength. [89]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanocem

    Nanocem is a consortium of academic and private industry groups, founded in 2004 and headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland.The consortium researches the properties of cement and concrete on the nano- and micro-scales, with a particular focus on reducing carbon dioxide emissions at all stages of production.

    Hence the inventors have also named it as 'Nano Concrete'. While it is possible to develop a strength of 20-30 MPa in conventional concrete with 320 kg of OPC per cu.m of concrete, for the same cement input Nano Concrete can render 50-80 MPa strength depending on fly ash quality and water input.

    Ange- Therese Akono's group studying the behavior of concrete directly at the nanometer lab scale, their trying to understand different structural property relationships. [ 11 ] In the development of smart cement, Akono suggested that longer, lasting material could save tax players billions in repairs and help reduce the carbon footprint.

    C-S-H is a nano sized material [5] [6] with some degree of crystallinity as observed by X-ray diffraction techniques. [7] The underlying atomic structure of C-S-H is similar to the naturally occurring mineral tobermorite. [8] It has a layered geometry with calcium silicate sheet structure separated by an interlayer space.

    Concrete typically comprises sand, aggregate, water and cement and it is the cement part of the concrete that has the largest single CO 2 emission impact. Approximately 14 billion m 3 of concrete is poured globally each year, [ 7 ] this equates to more than 32 billion tonnes or 1,070 tonnes per second.
