New Smart Cement Invented for Building More Durable Roads and Cities – California News Times
The power of nature has surpassed the materials we use to build infrastructure since we began building it. Ice and snow turn major roads into rubble every year. Despite its sturdy construction, the foundation of the house cracks and crumbles.Miles in each lane of the road, in addition to the large amount of waste generated by concrete debris The annual cost of the United States is about $ 24,000 To keep it in good repair.

Engineers working on this issue with smart materials typically enhance the functionality of the material by increasing the amount of carbon, but doing so results in some loss of the material’s mechanical performance. By introducing nanoparticles into conventional cement, researchers at Northwestern University have formed smarter, more durable, and more sophisticated cements.
