Ultrafine portland cement performance
By mixing several binder materials and additions with different degrees of fineness, the packing density of the final product may be improved. In this work, ultrafine cement and silica fume mixes were studied to optimize the properties of cement-based ...

ABSTRACT We evaluated 12 workers with documented exposure to respirable crystalline silica who were referred to a tertiary care center due to clinical suspicion of silicosis, sarcoidosis, or silicosarcoidosis. Although silica exposure is a well‐established risk factor for silicosis and has been associated with autoimmune diseases, mycobacterial ...

This review highlights how autoimmune diseases arise from intertwined immunological, genetic, and environmental factors, emphasizing gut microbiota dysbiosis as a pivotal driver. It outlines emerging nanotechnology‐based strategies—such as liposomes, hydrogels, and polymeric nanoparticles—that enhance targeted drug delivery, minimize systemic toxicity,

Carbonation of filler typed self-compacting concrete and its impact on the microstructure by utilization of 100% CO2 accelerating techniques [PDF]
Via the use of accelerated carbonation techniques with 100% CO2 concentration, an experimental programme was performed to investigate the carbonation and associated microstructural changes of three different self-compacting concrete (SCC) in which some ...

High-Power Fiber Laser Cutting for 50-mm-Thick Cement-Based Materials [PDF]
This experimental research highlights the applicability of laser cutting to cement-based materials using multimode fiber lasers. A 9 kW multimode fiber laser is used, and the experimental variables are the water-to-cement ratio, laser speed, and material

We demonstrate here the transformation of NBR (Nitrile butadiene rubber) including post‐consumer waste sourced from nitrile gloves and o‐rings into polyamines and polyols via ruthenium catalyzed hydrogenation. ABSTRACT We report here two new approaches for the chemical recycling/upcycling of nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) to make either polyamines or ...

Combined effect of silica fume and steel fibers on the impact resistance and mechanical properties of concrete [PDF]
This study investigated the impact resistance and mechanical properties of steel fiber-reinforced concrete with water-cement ratios of 0.46 and 0.36, with and without the addition of silica fume.
