Strength and Water-Repelling Properties of Cement Mortar Mixed with Water Repellents [PDF]
Materials, 2021 In this study, the compressive strength and water contact angle of mortar specimens prepared by mixing two types of water repellent with ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and rapid-hardening cement mortar were measured before and after surface abrasion.

Hydrologic behavior of model slopes with synthetic water repellent soils [PDF]
, 2017 In the natural environment, soil water repellency decreases infiltration, increases runoff, and increases erosion in slopes. In the built environment, soil water repellency offers the opportunity to develop granular materials with controllable ...

Interactions with water of mixed acetic-fatty cellulose esters [PDF]
, 2011 Cellulose powder was acylated with mixtures containing acetic, fatty and acetic-fatty anhydrides to form acetic-fatty cellulose esters. The total degree of substitution (DS) of the mixed cellulose esters (MCE) ranged from 2x10-2 to 2.92.

How roughness controls the water repellency of woven fabrics
Materials & Design, 2020 The coming ban on substances of high environmental concern used to provide water repellency to fabrics creates new challenges for the textile industry. Here we show that the design of the texture of woven fabrics is an important parameter to play with in

Effect of Biomass-Burning Emissions on Soil Water Repellency: A Pilot Laboratory Study
Fire, 2021 While western U.S. wildfires have increased in intensity and scale, their impacts on soil chemical composition and hydraulic processes have received little attention, despite increasing erosion, surface runoff and flooding.

Use of Clay Dispersed in Water for Decreasing Soil Water Repellency [PDF]
, 2017 In this study, we examined the efficiency of a kaolinite clayey soil to mitigate water repellency of a sandy soil with olive trees. The treatment was applied to the soil zone below the tree canopy, which displayed the highest degree of water repellency ...
