Use of superabsorbent polymers to mitigate autogenous shrinkage in ultra-high performance concrete [PDF]
, 2019 Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) with low w/c-ratio is very prone to the formation of cracks due to autogenous shrinkage. These cracks can lead to a decreased durability of the concrete, resulting in higher maintenance and/or repair costs in the ...

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Saruq al‐Hadid, located at the edge of the Rub Al‐Khali desert near Dubai's southern border with Abu Dhabi, is among the region's richest archaeological sites. Renowned for its historical role in metallurgy, trade and human habitation, the site was occupied from the Umm an‐Nar period through the post–Iron Age. Despite its significance, much of

Freeze-Thaw Resistance of Cement Screed with Various Supplementary Cementitious Materials
Reviews on Advanced Materials Science, 2019 This paper describes a study of the effect of partial replacement of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) by various mineral additives in the screed mixtures. Ceramic powder, blast furnace slag and fly ash were gradually employed in increments of 12.5 wt.% up ...

The Impact of Carbon Pricing on Corporate Sustainability: Evidence From the European Union
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The European Union (EU) has played a leading role in the fight against climate change. One mechanism used to meet the targets for global greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions is carbon pricing. A prominent example is the EU Emissions Trading System (EU‐ETS).

Preservation therapy for vertically fractured teeth with periodontal tissue regeneration using FGF‐2
Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Vertically fractured teeth often have a poor prognosis, and extraction is considered the most predictable treatment. Conventional management has consisted of preservation therapy involving extraction, bonding, root restoration, and replantation of fractured teeth.

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Delayed wound healing following implant placement surgery is an uncommon complication, usually attributed to systemic (smoking and alcohol), local (severely inflamed tissues), or technical (poor suturing) factors. However, delayed wound healing after implant placement caused by severe hypovitaminosis C has not been previously ...

Fiber reinforced mortars based on free Portland-CSA binders under high stress rate
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018 In this paper, dynamic behaviour of fiber reinforced mortars manufactured with innovative binders based on calcium sulphoaluminate cement (CSA), supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), gypsum (G) and hydrated lime (CH) was investigated. Fly ash (FA)

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.It is a challenge to improve the selectivity of high‐denticity ligands for Mg2+ over Ca2+. We show that in aryl‐alkynyl derivatives of APTRA, electron‐withdrawing substituents lower the binding affinity for Ca2+ more than Mg2+, making the ligand more selective for Mg2+.
