Prolonging Bacterial Viability in Biological Concrete: Coated Expanded Clay Particles [PDF]
One of the biggest challenges in the development of a biological self-healing concrete is to ensure the long-term viability of bacteria that are embedded in the concrete. In the present study, a coated expanded clay (EC) is investigated for its potential use as a bacterial carrier in biological concrete.

Technological properties of a self-bloating clay and expanded-clay aggregate for the production of lightweight concrete [PDF]
The global interest in an increasingly sustainable economy, with a reduction in the consumption of raw materials and energy, can be supported by the growth in the use of lightweight concrete (LC) produced with expanded-clay aggregates (EA).

Self-healing concrete with bacteria encapsulated in expanded clay [PDF]
Preparation process and the life service solicitations can cause damage on concrete’s internal structure, creating cracks that tend to propagate and increase with time. This poses a potential risk of failure as water penetrates, corroding the rebar what considerably reduces concrete’s life span. It is know that cement can exhibit up to a certain extent
