Effects of novel polymer-type shrinkage-reducing admixture on early age autogenous deformation of cement pastes
ABSTRACT
This study aims to investigate the autogenous shrinkage-reducing mechanisms of the novel polymer-type shrinkage-reducing admixture (SRA) with water-reducing function....
Characterization of silane-based hydrophobic admixtures in concrete using TOF-MS
ABSTRACT
Silane-based hydrophobic admixtures especially alkyltrialkoxysilanes are used as water repellent agents for the surface protection of concrete. To optimize the...
White Ordinary Portland Cement blended with superfine steel dust with high zinc oxide contents
ABSTRACT
The addition of steel waste in the form of slags and dust to cement is beneficial to the environment because waste can be immobilized, and thus, decreasing the waters...
