RETHINK CEMENT
FROM INSIDE THE
MIX WITH GUP®
GUP® in Cement: Driving Unparalleled Sustainability in Modern Infrastructure
THE PROBLEM
POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF USING GUP®
Lower emissions. Higher performance. Stronger future
Main Advantages of GUP® for Cementitious Materials
Increased Strength
GUP® integration enhances the compressive and tensile strength and the Young’s modulus of cement significantly, creating more robust construction materials
Resistance to Cracking
GUP®‘s unique properties reduces re-bar corrosion and the alkali– silica reaction, a swelling reaction that can result in serious cracking
Sustainability
GUP®based cement can help achieve sustainability goals in the construction industry, with high reduction of CO2 emission
Heat Distribution
The thermal conductivity of cement is strongly improved when GUP® is integrated, promoting better heat distribution and reduced thermal cracking and fractures
Less Water Permability
Cement embedded with GUP® exhibits reduced water permeability over 300%
Material Reduction
Due to the enhanced strength and durability, less cement is required for construction, leading to lower costs and a decrease in environmental impact
Enhanced Durability
The longevity of cement structures is substantially increased. Graphene creates a barrier that protects from the corrosion of reinforcing materials.
Superior Surface Finish
GUP®-integrated cement can provide a smoother, harder surface finish, improving aesthetics and wear resistance
Improved Elasticity
The use of GUP® increases the flexibility of cement, making it less brittle and more accommodating to physical stress
Energy Saving
Better thermal conductivity results in more energy-efficient buildings, reducing heating and cooling costs
Lightweight Materials
The incorporation of GUP® need less cement without compromising strength, enabling more light constructions and saving space
Resilience
GUP®-infused cement shows superior resistance in freeze-thaw cycling and to damage from elements like water, temperature changes, and various chemicals
