What is it about?
Many past studies concerned about using of nanoclay (nC) particles as an active pozzolan to concrete and their influence on the physical and mechanical properties. In this study, the effects of various nanoclay particle sizes and dosages on the compressive and flexural tensile strengths of SCCs were investigated

Why is it important?
The results of this study demonstrate the pozzolanic activity of the nC particles at later ages and proved to be significantly more effective than early ages.
Perspectives
In terms of economical and industrial applications, the results of this study may provide more insights into the utilization of new but costly nanoscale mineral (i.e. nC) instead the more widely used MK.
