An overview of current PCE compositions and synthesis methods is provided, followed by
novel applications for PCEs including C–S–H-PCE nano-composites and a description of …

Concrete constructed using recycled aggregates in place of natural aggregates is an
efficient approach to increase the construction sector's sustainability. To improve recycled …

Air entraining admixtures (AEAs) are surfactant-based solutions and powders that are used
to stabilize air voids in cement paste that protect concrete against frost damage. After …

The durability of concrete has attracted significant attention over the past several decades
and is still a research hotspot until now. This paper reviews and discusses recent research …

In cold regions, concrete structures such as pavements, bridges, and tunnels can undergo
freeze-thaw conditions, which may significantly deteriorate the performance of concrete and …

Measuring the evolution of pore structures is the most straightforward approach to assessing
frost damage in porous rocks. Systematic and fine measurement of pore structures is critical …

Freeze-thaw modification is a novel method that improves recycled aggregates by utilizing
the expansion of pore water during phase transitions. However, there is still a lack of …

The long-term expansion of calcium aluminate cement and calcium sulfoaluminate cement
in the presence of added gypsum has been studied for samples cured under water …

This paper investigates the application of natural zeolite as a substitute of cement in
concrete. It studies the mechanical and durability properties of concretes containing 10% of …
