Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon fibers (CFs) were incorporated into cement based materials to fabricate CNT-CF/cement-based materials. The temperature-sensitivity and pressure-sensitivity of CNT-CF/cement-based materials were studied. Results show that when content of CNTs is low (<0.5%), CNTs can effectively improve the temperature and pressure sensitive properties of CNT-CF/cement-based materials. The activation energy, temperature sensitivity coefficient, the linearity degree and repeatability rate of pressure-sensitivity increase as the CNT content increases. As the CNT content continue to increase, sensing properties of CNT-CF/cement-based materials decline. Specimen containing 0.5% (mass fraction) CNTs exhibits the optimal sensing properties. Using CNT-CF/cement-based materials to develop cement-based temperature sensor and pressure sensor has a certain application prospect.
