NANO-ALUMINOSILICATE FOR ADVANCED CEMENT SYSTEMS

NANOARC's nano-metakaolin is a manufactured, high-reactivity aluminosilicate nanomaterial developed using NANOARC’s proprietary QuantCrete nanotechnology.

Designed at the atomic and nanoscale level, it enables cement producers and concrete manufacturers to improve cement efficiency, reduce cement demand and develop higher-performance concrete systems.

Unlike conventional metakaolin, NANOARC nano-metakaolin is not mined, thermally activated or ground to achieve nanoscale dimensions. It is manufactured directly as a ligand-free nanopowder with controlled structure and exceptional reactivity.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

QUANTCRETE META (Nano-Metakaolin)

• Atomically architectured aluminosilicate nanomaterial

• Particle size: < 20 nm (or 0.02 µm), 250x smaller than conventional metakaolin, 10x smaller than silica fume

• Specific surface area: ~60 m²/g

• Ligand-free nanopowder

• Nano-Manufactured, not mined

• No high-temperature activation required

• No grinding required to achieve nanoscale dimensions

• Designed for ultra-low dosage applications

LOWER MATERIAL VOLUME. LOWER SUPPLY CHAIN BURDEN.

NANOARC nano-metakaolin is designed to deliver high functional impact from very small quantities of material.

Compared with conventional supplementary cementitious materials, lower addition levels provide practical advantages throughout the supply chain.

REDUCED TRANSPORT REQUIREMENTS

Lower material quantities mean:

• Less material movement

• Fewer deliveries

• Reduced logistics demand

REDUCED STORAGE REQUIREMENTS

Lower addition levels enable:

• Smaller storage footprint

• Reduced inventory requirements

• Easier integration into existing production environments

REDUCED MATERIAL HANDLING

A high-efficiency nanomaterial approach reduces the volume of supplementary materials required throughout the supply chain.

QuantCrete™ Meta-X is an advanced atomically-engineered aluminosilicate nanomaterial developed through NANOARC’s proprietary QuantCrete™ nanotechnology platform. Designed for high-performance and low-carbon cement systems, Meta-X applies controlled nanochemistry to create enhanced reactivity, engineered surface characteristics and improved interaction with cement hydration processes.

Manufactured through an advanced bottom-up synthesis process, QuantCrete™ Meta-X is designed rather than mined or mechanically processed from conventional mineral sources. This enables precise control over nanoscale structure, material consistency and reactive surface properties without the need for thermal activation or grinding.

QuantCrete™ Meta-X is engineered for advanced binder systems where improved hydration efficiency, microstructure refinement and enhanced durability performance are required. When incorporated into existing cementitious formulations, Meta-X improves binder efficiency, supports the development of strength-bearing hydration phases and enhances the performance of lower-carbon construction materials.

APPLICATIONS

QuantCrete™ Meta-X is designed for:

• Advanced low-carbon cement systems

• High-performance concrete formulations

• Supplementary cementitious material enhancement

• Durability-focused construction materials

• Next-generation binder technologies
