Evaluation of Epoxidized Soybean Oil as a Green Admixture for Biobased Polymer–Impregnated Cement Pastes: Comparison with Dioctyl Terephthalate
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Biobased green plasticizers are preferred in the production of plastics in light of the environmental and human health issues posed by traditional plasticizers. Epoxidized soybean oil is an environmentally friendly admixture ...
Optimization of Nanofiller-Blended Cementitious Composites Using Macrostructural and Microstructural Analyses
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Microcracks inevitably occur over time in cement composites, and they pose a threat to the safety and durability of concrete structures, especially when environmental conditions are considered. Microstructural analysis can ...
Investigation of the Effect of High-Purity Terephthalic Acid Obtained by Hydrolysis of PET Bottle Wastes on the Cementitious Composite Properties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the effective approaches to waste polyethylene terephthalate (w-PET) disposal is chemolysis, and terephthalic acid (TPA) is preferred due to its rigid and stable structure recycling product and its rigid properties. ...
