Abstract
The environmental impacts of extracting raw materials for construction are an emerging concern. The incorporation of recycled fine aggregates (RFAs) in the production of cement-based composites is gaining significance. RFAs offer environmental advantages in construction materials; yet, they may compromise mechanical properties. This work presents an innovative approach to enhance the performance and sustainability of mortars by using electrospun MXene/sericin (MXS) nanofibers with recycled fine aggregate (RFA). The multifunctional nanofibers were designed to improve carbonation efficiency, mechanical strength , durability, and CO₂ sequestration. The results demonstrate a 15 % increase in compressive strength and a 26 % rise in flexural strength after 28 days with 0.3 wt% MXS, as well as a 40 % reduction in the chloride migration coefficient. The porosity analysis revealed a 28 % reduction in cumulative porosity and a 29 % decrease in effective porosity, while capillary absorption decreased by 18 %. Moreover, CO₂ absorption to a peak of 9.3 kg/ton with 0.3 wt% MXS, indicating enhanced carbonation efficiency. Furthermore, the composites exhibited remarkable electrical conductivity and self-sensing capacities due to the percolating MXene networks, enabling real-time structural monitoring. The results confirm that MXS nanofibers are a feasible enhancement for developing high-performance, low-carbon cementitious systems that offer mechanical strength , durability, environmental benefits, and integrated intelligence.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
