Abstract
In this paper, the core–shell structured SiO2@PMHS hybrid nanoparticles were synthesized with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS). And SiO2@PMHS core–shell nanoparticles were first used as a surface treatment agent for cement-based materials. The influence of SiO2@PMHS nanoparticles on the water absorption of hardened cement mortar with water-to-cement ratio of 0.6 was investigated. Results showed that the water absorption of cement mortar treated with SiO2@PMHS nanoparticles was decreased by 93.47% in comparison to the control sample.
