Experimental investigations of strengthened beam with co-cured carbon FRP and mussel shell-modified epoxy

Ain Shams Engineering Journal
Traditional strengthening materials, such as carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates bonded with synthetic fillers, often rely on non-renewable resources and may have limited environmental compatibility.

Durable Integration Fresh Concrete To Existing Concrete Using Epoxy Resin Adhesive [PDF]

, 2010
In order to prolong service life of deteriorated structures, The authors have developed a rehabilitation method, i.e., durable integration using epoxy resin adhesives such as thin steel fiber reinforced concrete pavement on orthotropic steel decks and ...

Bond, tension‐stiffening, and cracking in multi‐generational recycled aggregate concrete subjected to shrinkage strains

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The concrete industry is responsible for a significant portion of global waste production and multi‐generation recycled aggregate concrete (MGRAC) is a means to allow the sector to transition to a circular economy framework. To predict the behavior of MGRAC at the member level there is a need to understand the underlying mechanics of bond ...

Chemical Recycling as a Tool for Enabling a Second Life for Polyesters

SusMat, EarlyView.
This review presents the elucidation of the life cycle of main polyesters, detailing end‐of‐life methods, with focus of solvolysis technologies, then an analysis of LCA and TEA on literature data, an original data analytic, and, finally, a current industrial mapping of the main processes with a critical perspective on the plastic life‐cycle ecosystem ...

The effect of epoxy resin in stone and slag concrete [PDF]

, 1966
In concrete construction, the weight of the structure represents a large portion of the total load carried; thus, there is considerable advantage in reducing the weight of the concrete. To obtain this result, there are at least three approaches (1).

Intra‐ and Interspecific Effects on Spatio‐Temporal Behavior of Common Commensal Rodent Species

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study revealed major findings on spatio‐temporal behavior of commensal rodents on a pig farm showing the influence of interspecific dominance on movement behavior and the resulting species‐specific ecological adaptations. Additionally, rodents tend to stay in their home ranges and migration to other stable buildings is only rare.

Occupational Contact Allergy to Components of Epoxy Resin Systems: Descriptive and Comparative Epidemiological Analyses Based on IVDK Data 2008–2022

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
This study analyzes patch test data from 23 969 patients with occupational dermatitis to characterise sensitization to bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (DGEBA), reactive diluents, and amine hardeners. The findings show an overall decline in DGEBA sensitization with fluctuations, substantial co‐sensitization, and markedly increased risks in construction ...

Enhanced Bond Performance of Guadua-Reinforced Concrete Synergistic Effects of Epoxy Resin and Grooved Surface Treatments

Journal of Applied Science and Engineering
This study investigates the bond behavior between concrete and Guadua angustifolia Kunth bamboo using a pull-out test adapted from ASTM C234. A multifactorial experimental design was employed to evaluate two key treatment parameters: surface texture ...

Testing coir (coconut) fiber as a novel, biodegradable material for coral reef restoration: coir interactions with larval and juvenile corals

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral populations have declined in recent decades, largely due to anthropogenic climate change. In response, coral restoration projects are being implemented, and rubble stabilization is one such approach. Rubble beds form when dead coral fragments accumulate on the seafloor and can be mobilized by water flow.
