Abstract: 

This article provides a literature review on the use of nanosilica to improve the surface of recycled nanosilica aggregate and modify the properties of recycled aggregate concrete. The properties, characteristics and methods of modification of nanosilica are considered, the mechanical properties and evolution of the microstructure of nanosilica after modification are highlighted. The results show that nanosilica can improve the mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete mainly due to the good nucleation effect, filling effect and volcanic ash effect of nanosilica.

Keywords: 
Nano-silica, Recycled concrete, Mechanical properties
