A Molecular Dynamics Study on the Structure, Interfaces, Mechanical Properties, and Mechanisms of a Calcium Silicate Hydrate/2D-Silica Nanocomposite

The incorporation of nano-reinforcements is believed to be a promising method to create high performance nanocomposites, which are largely dependent on the interfacial connections. In this work, the newly emerging two-dimensional (2D) material, 2D-silica is intentionally intercalated into the interl...
