(57) Methods for the dispersion and synthesis of graphene nano-platelet-cement composites and helical carbon nanotube composites with high concentrations of graphene nanoplatelets or helical carbon nanotubes that do not require chemical dispersion aids or dispersion-enhancing chemical surface functionalization are provided. Also provided are the reinforced cement composites made using the methods.
