However, the current TE cement shows poor performance, which greatly limits its application. Herein, a series of Bi_0.5Sb_1.5Te₃/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) co-reinforced cement composites have been prepared, and their TE properties were systematically investigated. It was shown that the addition of Bi_0.5Sb_1.5Te₃ particles can effectively improve the TE properties of CNTs-reinforced cement composites by building a better conductive network, increasing energy filtering and interfaces scattering. The Bi_0.5Sb_1.5Te₃/CNTs cement composites with 0.6 vol.% of Bi_0.5Sb_1.5Te₃ exhibits the highest ZT value of 1.2 × 10^-2, increased by 842 times compared to that of the CNTs-reinforced cement composites without Bi_0.5Sb_1.5Te₃. The power output of this sample with the size of 2.5 × 3.5 × 12 mm³ reaches 0.002 μW at a temperature difference of 19.1 K. These findings shed new light on the development of high-performance TE cement, which can guide continued advances in their potential application of harvesting thermal energy from pavements.
