Incorporating nanomaterials into traditional cement improves water and fracture resistance. Forces of nature have been outsmarting the materials we use to build our infrastructure since…
A collaboration between MIT and CNRS has yielded a cement that conducts electricity and generates heat. Since its invention several millennia ago, concrete has become…
MIT researchers find a way to eliminate carbon emissions from cement production — a major global source of greenhouse gases. It’s well known that the…
A team of engineers at Drexel University have developed a “green” version of ordinary Portland cement (OPC). By using a form of alkali-activated cement that…
