Nano-Silica can be used to resolve low-resistance problems at a beginning stage, which improve the density and structure of the concrete. Nano iron improves compressive and flexural strength while also imparting self-sensing capabilities. Nano titanium aids in the self-cleaning of concrete.
In conventional concrete, silica (SiO 2) is present as part of a standardised mix. However, in recent studies, it was found that the use of nano-silica (NS) in concrete and cement pastes improved the particle packing in both materials . NS acts as a nanofiller for the calcium silicate hydrate (Ca–Si–H) particles in the cement and acts as a ...

For instance, Singh et al. reported that the method used to incorporate nano-silica into cement composites can affect the porosity and mechanical properties of the composites. A bad nano-silica dispersion in cement-based materials may generate voids and weak zones, altering the mechanical properties of the materials.
About 20%–30% of cement content can be reduced by nano silica. Thus, nano silica can be an alternative material to cement. However, the disadvantage of nano silica is its price and availability in certain countries. Some countries have to import nano silica to be used in concrete industry [4]. 6. Nano alumina
