The Effect of Interfacial Transition Zone Properties on the Elastic Properties of Cementitious Nanocomposite Materials

Table 4

Elastic modulus for different interfacial strengths and different ITZ volume fractions (case 3: decreasing ITZ elastic modulus from 60.0 GPa to 30.0 GPa, average of 45.0 GPa).
