Abstract

The Seebeck effect in carbon fiber-reinforced cement paste was found to involve electrons from the cement matrix and holes from the fibers. The two contributions were equal at the percolation threshold, with a fiber content between 0.5 and 1.0% by mass of cement. The hole contribution increased monotonically with increasing fiber content below and above the percolation threshold. The fiber addition increased the linearity and reversibility of the Seebeck effect. Silica fume and latex as admixtures had minor influence on the Seebeck effect.
