Patent ID: 7666327

Claim:
A method of making a multifunctional cementitious nanocomposite material, comprising: dispersing nanomaterials in a solvent, sonicating the solvent with dispersed nanomaterials, adding a hydrophilic cellulose derived compound to hot water, separating and expanding the hydrophilic cellulose derived compound in the water, dissolving the hydrophilic cellulose derived compound in the water, adding the solvent with dispersed nanomaterials to the water with dispersed hydrophilic cellulose derived compound, mechanically stirring the combination of solvent with dispersed nanomaterials and water with dispersed hydrophilic cellulose derived compound to form a nano admixture, adding the prepared nano admixture to a measured amount of water to form nano admixture modified water, and using the nano admixture modified water in place of ordinary water in a cementitious material manufacturing process.
