The Impact of DNA as a Chemical Admixture for Cementitious Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 15, August 7, 2025.
DNA molecules are added to cement pastes and their effects on rheology and hydration time are studied. DNA's chemical structure is composed of polysaccharide and phosphate groups, which are active functional groups in different commercial chemical admixtures: Viscosity modifiers and superplasticizers.
