Description
Nanotech-Driven Bonding Agents for Resilient and Sustainable FRP-Based Concrete Retrofitting presents a pioneering approach to overcoming a long-standing challenge in structural engineering: interfacial debonding in fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) retrofitting systems. Drawing on advanced experimental methods and material characterization techniques, this book introduces the development and evaluation of nanomaterial-modified epoxy adhesives to enhance the bond strength and overall mechanical performance of near-surface mounted (NSM)-FRP retrofitting in concrete structures. Focusing on incorporating both carbon- and silicon-based nanomaterials into epoxy adhesive, the author investigates their effects on the chemical, physical, and microstructural properties of structural adhesives. Through rigorous bond testing and flexural performance analysis, this study demonstrates how nanotechnology can shift failure modes, reduce debonding risks, and improve load-bearing capacity, making FRP retrofitting more durable, resilient, and sustainable. With detailed insights into adhesive formulation, interface performance, and design implications, the book serves as a valuable reference for researchers, civil engineers, materials scientists, and graduate students working in structural rehabilitation, composite materials, and sustainable infrastructure. It also outlines directions for future research, including scale-up strategies, new FRP geometries, and performance under environmental stresses such as fire, load cycling, and seismic activity. Whether you're working in academia or applied engineering, this book offers practical and innovative solutions at the frontier of concrete retrofitting technologies.
