TLDR
In this article, the effects of graphene and graphene oxide on the hydration, microstructures and mechanical properties of cement paste were investigated by using reactive force field molecular dynamics (MD), revealing that functional hydroxyl groups in GO provide non-bridging oxygen (NBO) sites that accept hydrogen-bonds of interlayer water molecules in the calcium silicate hydrate (CSH).

Modified Lucas-Washburn function of capillary transport in the calcium silicate hydrate gel pore: A coarse-grained molecular dynamics study

TL;DR: In this article, a new capillary transport model is proposed by modifying the classic L-W function, taking into consideration the effects of dynamic contact angle and inertia force, slip length next to interior walls of gel pore and viscosity variation for liquid ultra-confined in nanopores.

An intensive review on the role of graphene oxide in cement-based materials

TL;DR: In this paper, a review on the reinforcing effects and mechanisms of GO on cement composites by consulting a lot of correlative literature, mainly focusing on the following aspects: (I) the dispersion issue of GO in the alkaline cement paste; (II) the effects of the GO on the macro-performance (workability, mechanical strength, and durability) of cement composite materials; (III) the reinforcing mechanisms of the materials including hydration kinetics, C-S-H structure, pore structure, and interfacial bonding with cement matrix.
