Özet

Attempts to modify cement-based mixtures and to improve their properties have always attracted the attention of researchers. Favorable effects of nanoparticles, such as small particle size, high reactivity, and great surface area, have made them be used as one of the best replacements of cement. This paper aims to review the previous researches conducted regarding the effects of nanoparticles on the properties of concretes. Influence of various types of nanoparticles on the workability of fresh composite, mechanical properties such as compressive strength, flexural strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and abrasion resistance, and durability-related properties such as water absorption, chloride ion penetration, resistance to frost, shrinkage, and carbonation of concrete is discussed.
