Characteristics of cement mortar with nano-SiO2 particles

TLDR
In this paper, the properties of cement mortars with nano-SiO 2 were experimentally studied, and the results showed that the compressive strength of mortars containing nano SiO 2 particles was significantly higher than those of those containing silica fume at 7 and 28 days.

Effect of nano-silica on rheology and fresh properties of cement pastes and mortars

TL;DR: Amorphous nano-silica (nS) particles were incorporated in cement pastes and mortars, and their effect on the fresh state behavior was analysed as mentioned in this paper, where the influence of nS content was better observed on yield stress when compared with plastic viscosity values (the first increased about 66.5% while the latter just increased 3.6%).

Microstructure of cement mortar with nano-particles

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical properties of nano-Fe2O3 and nano-SiO2 cement mortars were experimentally studied and the experimental results showed that the compressive and flexural strengths measured at the 7th day and 28th day of the cement mortar mixed with the nano-particles were higher than that of a plain cement mortar.
