Crack-freeConcrete Market: Overview
Crack-freeconcrete is defined as a mixture of concrete with anti-cracking properties.Crack-free concrete can be manufactured by using an expansive agent withadequate wet-curing requirement. Wet-curing is carried out after demolding. Asurface treatment should be wet-cured for at least one week. Generally,crack-free concrete is ideal to be used for outside industrial floors, withoutusing the contractor joints and in the absence of any wet-curing. Typicalreinforcement of concrete is provided at the macro and micro scales by usingmacro and micro fibers respectively.
Factorssuch as increasing investments in the building & construction sector andrising demand for crack-resistant concrete structures are driving thecrack-free concrete market. On the other hand, drawbacks associated withincorporation of CNTs (carbon nanotubes) in cement-based materials arehampering the crack-freeconcrete market. Also, lack of uniform dispersion of CNTs within thematrix and high initial cost of incorporating CNTs are hindering the crack-freeconcrete market.
Crack-free Concrete Market: Key Segments
In termsof type, the crack-free concrete market has been segmented into conventionalaggregate, lightweight aggregate, and others. Lightweight aggregate includespumice, scoria, and tuff. Most lightweight aggregates are prepared by theU.S.-based companies. The others segment comprises sintered fly ash, expandedslag, and bed ash.

In termsof mix design, the crack-free concrete market has been divided intoshrinkage-reducing admixtures and shrinkage-compensating cement. The latter isless expensive than the former.
Based onreinforcement, the crack-free concrete market has been bifurcated into cementpaste reinforced with CNTs (carbon nanotubes) and cement paste reinforced with CNFs(carbon nanofibers). The nanofibers added not only improve fracture propertiesof the cement matrix by controlling matrix cracks at the nanoscale level, butalso enhance the early-age strain capacity of the cement matrix, producinghigh-performance nanocomposites.
