Iranian Firm Uses Abrasion-Resistant Nanoparticle in Concrete Flooring
‘Behdis Saman Amin’ company’s product is a well-engineered flooring composed of inorganic nanoparticles and cementitious materials with excellent resistance to abrasion and bending.
It can strongly tolerate the climate change, as well as cold, heat, and moisture
The product can be applied as industrial and decorative floorings, parks, sidewalks and intersections, stairs and ramps surface and refinery yards and refueling stations.
Relevant reports said earlier this month that an Iranian company had also succeeded in production of lightweight concrete paver blocks by using oxide nanoparticles with application in construction industry.
‘Aptus Iran’ company has made the product which is a multi-functional concrete comparatively lighter than its counterparts with extraordinary paintability, low weight, water-proof feature, and high abrasion resistance.
These intrinsic properties originate from the inclusion of oxide nanoparticles in the cementitious matrix.
Adding the oxide nanoparticles of pozzolanic nature has improved compressive, bending and tensile strength of the product and durability and decreased its permeability.
The special nano-based blocks can be used in interior decoration or building exterior architecture and cement coating for restaurants, food courts, coffee shops, building facades.
