Dispersing Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) into concrete at low (<1 wt% in cement) concentrations may improve performance and properties provide enhanced functionalities. When MWCNT-enhanced is fragmented during remodelling or demolition, the stiff, fibrous carcinogenic MWCNTs will, however, also be part of respirable particulate matter released process. Consequently, systematic aerosolizing crushed concretes a controlled environment measuring this aerosol can give valuable insights...
Abstract Construction and demolition workers are exposed to high levels of particulate matter (PM) from building materials throughout their working life. Although nano-enabled (NEBMs) may improve the performance functionality buildings, concerns being raised regarding health risks occupational exposure PM NEBMs. In this work, an experimental set-up for integrated resuspension characterization NEBMs was developed tested using three types concrete (low density, normal, strength), each enhanced...
