Potential Application of Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy as a Tool to Study Cementitious Materials
Raman spectroscopy is a versatile tool for the study of cementitious materials due to its sensitivity to both amorphous as well as crystalline phases. However, this is not a well-established technique in cement chemistry due to fluorescence of these materials posing significant difficulties in the analysis. An alternative method to combat fluorescence, which has not yet been fully utilized in the Raman analysis of cementitious materials, is surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). This technique involves the enhancement of the Raman signal by many orders of magnitude following the adsorption of analyte molecules on metal nanostructures. This paper discusses potential benefits of developing a technique based on SERS for concrete materials and also presents some preliminary results correlating Raman spectra with the aggregation of silver nanoparticles on samples.
