Effective Dispersion of Carbon Nanotube in Epoxy Grout for Structural Rehabilitation

The industry nowadays is incorporating the composite repair system for repairing pipelines rather than the conventional steel repair. The mechanism of this repair method usually consists of three components which are the composite wrapping, infill material and the adhesive. However, there has been v...
