VISAKHAPATNAM: In a focused effort to address long-term durability and safety concerns in nuclear infrastructure, the Visakhapatnam-based Institute of Solid Waste Research and Ecological Balance ...

ABSTRACT: Sandpits produce sands of different properties, based on the nature of the weathered mother rocks and sand quality directly affects the performance, durability and functionality of products ...

High strength concrete is usually cast with low water-to-binder ratio (w/b) in order to produce a compact microstructure with high strength and durability. Autoclave curing can accelerate cement ...

A recent review published in Nanomaterials analyzes the dispersion and reinforcement effects of graphene oxide (GO) in cement composites. The study focuses on the challenges of achieving uniform ...

Cement concretes are widely used and very effective in the construction industry. Micro-scale problems such as porosity, micro-cracks, etc. Many researchers have done research work globally to address ...

Heidelberg Materials is betting it can profit from an expensive process that will reduce the carbon dioxide emitted from one of the world’s most polluting industries. By Stanley Reed Reporting from ...

ABSTRACT: Carbonation is a natural aging process that occurs in all types of concrete. One of its primary implications is the acceleration of steel corrosion caused by the phenomena of depassivation.

Abstract: Observing the microstructure images of cement can help us understand cement hydration and assist in designing such materials. Through the use of microscopic imaging equipment, such as ...
