A new multiscale model predicts how concrete’s stiffness and thermal-expansion change at high temperatures, offering insights ...

Purdue University researchers have 3D-printed cement paste, a key ingredient of the concrete and mortar used to build various elements of infrastructure, that gets tougher under pressure like the ...

Researchers have 3D-printed cement paste, a key ingredient of the concrete and mortar used to build various elements of infrastructure, that gets tougher under pressure like the shells of ...

“The cement paste that was put in came out as new cement,” says Dr Dunant. And unlike cement kilns, which are heated by flames, electric-arc furnaces zap their contents with high-powered ...

Researchers at Princeton University have developed a cement paste that is 5.6 times stronger than cement, mortar, and other conventional cement-based construction materials, reports Interesting ...

These cement-paste tablets lay atop the polymer layer similarly to how aragonite lies on the biopolymer layer in nacre. These three types were compared against a reference solid ...

Youngblood and his team found that by increasing the heat of hydration, the chemically modified nanocellulose reacted to improve the behavior of cement paste in a variety of chemical reactions. “This ...

Engineers created a breakthrough cement that's 17 times stronger, leading to safer and more durable buildings. And they used an astonishing secret weapon.
