Research results suggest that the use of nanographite in the CFA-C system and the pure cement system accelerate the setting time and increase the strength gains, hence overweighing any negative effects. The water absorption, apparent volume, apparent density, CH-content, setting time, fluidity and strength gain are favourable when compared to pure cement and nanographite-blended cement. Part 1 discusses materials and methods, whereas Part 2 will focus on the results and conclusions.
