Abstract

Cement is by far the most important and widespread building material in the industrialized world, with 4.2 billion tons of cement being produced in 2017. Cement production is, nonetheless, ecologically harmful, as a result of the CO2 produced both by clinker and cement kilns. One possible solution lies in reducing the amount of clinker in the cement composites. This demand could be met by enhancing the mechanical properties of cement-based composites, for example, by loading them with nanofillers (NFs) that improve the resistance to crack propagation in the cement-based composites.
