... properties. The EAs significantly improved the expansion properties and reduced the tensile stress at the interface; these were the main reasons for the improvement in bond properties between the MKG and cement stone. Favourable bond property is an important basis for MKG as an inorganic crack repair...

..., the characteristics of chloride penetration in the interfacial zone of joints in precast and post-cast concrete are investigated through long-term erosion experiments in this study, wherein wet–dry cyclic exposure is used to accelerate the chloride penetration. Additionally, three interface roughness values and two...

... of calcite resulting in a reduction in bond strength. The failure patterns and fracture interface images of the tested specimens also demonstrate the quality of the developed bond strength. It is shown that the interface zone of PCC substrate and AAB is homogeneous with no visible gap between the two bonding...

... containing quartz tailing by modifying the interface between the quartz tailing and the cement matrix. In this study, the quartz tailing was modified by calcining the material mixed with carbide slag at 1050°C. The compressive strength, autogenous shrinkage, microstructure and nanomechanical properties...
