Structural ordering, mechanical performance and reinforcement mechanism of polyvinyl alcohol-regulated calcium silicate hydrate

Calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) determines the mechanical properties of cementitious materials. Disordered microstructure and random pores of C-S-H significantly limit its performance. Herein, C-S-H/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composites were fabricated to regulate the assembly of C...
