Abstract: The invention relates to a stable, highly concentrated, aqueous suspension of nanoparticles, particularly of titanium dioxide particles, a method for production, and use of the suspension, e.g. for coating or impregnation, or as an additive in organic or inorganic matrices. The suspension contains a first dispersant based on a polymeric alkoxylate and a second dispersant selected from the group of amino alcohols. The suspension is preferably characterized by the fact that its stability is preserved even during and after vigorous dispersion in an attrition mill and no increase in viscosity occurs. In a preferred embodiment, the viscosity declines by up to 10 to 50% as a function of the milling time. In a further embodiment, the suspension can be dried and subsequently redispersed, without the state of dispersion deteriorating.

Abstract: A construction material mixture used as a concrete additive contains a puzzolanic substrate and a photocatalyst. The puzzolanic substrate and the photocatalyst are available in the form of a dry mixture. The construction material mixture is a cement free dry mixture, wherein the photocatalyst has a primary particle size of between 2 nm and 100 nm. The puzzolanic substrate consists of at least 90 weight % of fly ash with a grain size of between 0.1 ?m and 1 mm. The substrate and the photocatalyst are available completely mixed so that the photocatalyst is at least partially distributed on the surface of the substrate.
