Significant drying shrinkage and early-age cracking have remained critical constraints to the broader application of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). This study attempted to address these limitations through the addition of acrylic emulsion (AE), and the influence of its content (0–10 wt.%) on the setting time,...

This study comparatively investigates the reinforcement mechanisms of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) and graphene oxide (GO) in cement mortar at dosages of 0–0.1%, focusing on mechanical properties, drying shrinkage, fluidity, water absorption, and microstructural evolution characterized by SEM, XRD, and MIP. Both nanom...
