IMPROVING THE MECHANICAL AND DURABILITY PROPERTIES OF CEMENT MORTAR BY NANO TITANIUM
Cement Mortar is the primary component of cementitious composites. Therefore, it has almost importance for concrete structures. Cement mortar rendering is usually used as a protective layer for most structural elements. The properties of cement mortar incorporating nano titanium were experimentally studied. Nano titanium is a very fine material, which plays a vital role in filling the pores between crystals. This property can lead to better mechanical and physical properties of cement mortar. The experimental results show that compressive and flexural strength gain of cement mortar improves until the added nano titanium reaches 1% of cement weight by 27% and 6 % respectively. Furthermore, porosity of cement mortar incorporating 1% nano titanium climbs to improvement level of 30% over plain samples. In addition, the results show an increase in the specimen’s density by 5%, over control samples.
