This article evaluates the ability of a magnesia kiln dust (PC-8) and a commercial calcined MgO (MCB100), combined with ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS), as constituents of binary M-S-H binders. Mortars and pastes ...

This paper analyzes the ability of the SCG for briquettes production based on the use of xanthan gum as binder under low-pressure and low-temperature biomass manufacturing conditions. Briquettes were manufactured at room ...

Varied target materials can be incorporated into polyester polymer concretes (PPC). This allows natural aggregates to be substituted for different waste products in non-structural polymeric construction and building ...

This article shows an experimental investigation carried out for the stabilization of a sulfate soil. The stabilization was carried out in two phases: the first phase was the consumption of the sulfate present in the ...

This paper analyzes the ability of the spent coffee grounds (SCG) for briquettes production with xanthan and guar gums as binders. Briquettes were manufactured at room temperature, at 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% of moisture, at ...

This paper analyzes the ability of two Spent Refractory Wastes (SRW) for the manufacturing of recycled granulates for construction applications. A binary magnesium oxide and ground granulated blast furnace slag hydraulic ...

This paper analyzes the ability of magnesium oxide-based additives to stabilise a low bearing gypsum marly soil, in order to reach subgrade requirements. This soil was not adequate for stabilisation with lime or cement ...
