Exploring the potential of nano-SiO2 to prevent early-age frost damage in Portland cement paste

The purpose of this study is to explore the potential of nano-SiO2 (NS) to prevent early frost damage, and the effect of nano-SiO2 (NS) on cement pastes subjected to early-age freezing was investigated regarding the macro properties (strength and durability) and micro properties (hydration and microstructure). The specimens were prepared with NS...
