          <dc:title>Synthesis and Characterizations of Clay from Kan Khunit Sint Lake (Lake with seven steps), Loikaw, Kayah State</dc:title>

          <dc:description>Clays occur in huge quantities, need improvement by stabilization or by replacing them with granular material. Current, nanotechnology based Advanced Ceramics has changed our vision, expectations and abilities to control the material world. The developments in nano-science can also have a great impact on the field of construction materials. Portland cement, one of the largest commodities consumed by mankind, is obviously the product with great. Nano-reinforced composite building materials were developed on the base of quartz raw material. In this preliminary work, the structural analysis of the clay samples from Kan Khunit Sint lake, Demawso Township, Loikaw, Kayah State, in air at the room temperature were investigated by EDXRF (Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence) and XRD (X-ray Diffraction analysis). The tridymite SiO2 (lower temperature range) formed as nano-SiO2 (~71 nm) in the clay samples and others materials Si, Fe, Ca, K, Ti, Mn, and Zr were detected. It is also called nanoclay that can be considered as reinforced material to become composite cement. These cement eco-nano composites can provide new insights for the development of new ‘environmental-friendly nanomaterials’ for building applications such as the construction of sandwich panels, ceilings and roofs.</dc:description>
