(a) The carboxyl group of GO reacts with Ca2+ of cement hydration products, forming a strong covalent bond that leads to the formation of a three-dimensional network structure. This structure enhances the interfacial bond between the cement matrix and the reinforcing material [35]; (b) SEM images show that the hydrated products are inserted into the 3D network structure of GO nanosheets [35].
