Physicochemical and Piezoresistive properties of smart cementitious composites with graphene nanoplates and graphite plates

Graphene nanoplate (GNP) and graphite plate (GP) are promising functional nanofillers for smart self-sensing cementitious composites. The effects of GNP and GP on physicochemical, mechanical and piezoresistive properties of cementitious composite were investigated in this paper. The results show that cement hydration was accelerated with the increased amounts of GNP and GP because of nucleation effect. The electrical resistivity of...
