The Influence of the Ageing Process on the Mechanical Properties of Cement Mortars with Nano-SiO<sub>2</sub> Admixture Initially Subjected to Thermal Treatment
The research aimed to evaluate the effect of nano-silica (NS) on the strength recovery of the previously heated cement mortars. One hundred twenty cement mortar specimens were prepared with 1% to 5% of NS. The specimens were heated at temperatures ranging from 200 °C to 800 °C. Half of the samples,...
