Particle Size & Application:

• Particle Size: 10–200 nm

• Application in Cementitious Systems:

• • Enhances mechanical properties and wear resistance.

  • Increases fire resistance in special applications.

Processing Method:

• Sol-Gel Method:

  • Metal salts are dissolved in a liquid medium and precipitated into nano-particles.

• Flame Spray Pyrolysis:

  • A precursor solution is atomized and burned in a flame, rapidly forming ceramic nanoparticles.

Benefits in Cementitious Systems:

✔ Increases abrasion resistance in high-wear applications.
✔ Enhances fire resistance by stabilizing high-temperature phases.
✔ Improves impact resistance and toughness.
