This study aimed to assess the potential usage of balsa wood to produce cement-bonded particleboards as well as to study the effects of accelerated carbonation on the cement-bonded balsa particleboard. Particleboards were ...

The accelerated aging effects on mechanical properties of carbon fiber-reinforced polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) thermoplastic composites are reported. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation and moisture absorption may induce property ...

The aim of this paper is to study the effects of carbonation on the electrochemical properties of carbon steel and galvanized steel, immersed into cubic prisms of concrete elaborated with Portland pozzolanic cement. ...

The present work evaluated the effects of accelerated carbonation on mechanical and physical characteristics of cementitious roofing tiles reinforced with vegetable fibre. The maximum load and toughness of the tiles have ...

Samples of ASTM A-706 structural steel embedded in different concretes obtained from mixtures of alkali-activated steel slag and fly ash were exposed to accelerated carbonation under controlled conditions (4% CO2, 65% RH ...
