Distribution of Water in Synthetic Calcium Silicate Hydrates [PDF]
Langmuir, 2016 Understanding calcium silicate hydrates (CSHs) is of paramount importance for understanding the behavior of cement materials because they control most of the properties of these man-made materials. The atomic scale water content and structure have a major influence on their properties, as is analogous with clay minerals, and we should assess these ...

Bioactive calcium silicate ceramics and coatings
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2008 CaO-SiO2 based ceramics have been regarded as potential candidates for artificial bone due to their excellent bone bioactivity and biocompatibility. However, they cannot be used as implants under a heavy load because of their poor mechanical properties, in particular low fracture toughness.

Nanoscale origins of creep in calcium silicate hydrates [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 AbstractThe time-dependent response of structural materials dominates our aging infrastructure’s life expectancy and has important resilience implications. For calcium-silicate-hydrates, the glue of cement, nanoscale mechanisms underlying time-dependent phenomena are complex and remain poorly understood.

Degradation Pathways of Silicon‐Based Anodes in Lithium‐Ion Batteries
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.Silicon‐based anodes undergo degradation through five primary pathways: (1) mechanical and structural deterioration of the active material, (2) loss of electrode integrity and electrical contact, (3) mechanical instability of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), characterized by repetitive fracture and deformation, (4) chemical instability of the ...
