This study focuses on the evaluation of efficiency a low-cost macrocapsule, using commercially available pharmaceutical capsules with specific modifications, for self-healing concrete. The macrocapsules were developed by Belgian Building Research Institute in previous study. healing agent is resin based alkyd-urethane, commercial product, which was selected its compatibility concrete and shell,...

The idea of smart corrosion inhibition is basis on either inhibitor consumption where it is needed or reducing harmful matrix interaction with it. In addition, applying corrosion inhibitor in a coating causes many problems such as loss of inhibition capability, coating degradation, or both. A useful technique to overcome this problem is applying of inert host systems of nanometer dimensions as ...

The characteristics of armour paints, historically used to protect ferrous industrial heritage, are explored. Amour paints contain lamellar and highly reflexive pigments micaceous iron oxide (MIO) metallic, leafing aluminium, bound in linseed oil oil–tung mixtures, on an inhibitive soap-forming primer (red lead). It is the first study binding media for historical investigates chemical physical ...

The waste of cooking oil was increased due to the consumption increases. Waste can reuse for raw material after adsorption process with Bayah's natural zeolite, such as feedstock alkyd resins. This paper studied effect mass Bayah zeolite (w/w %) on characteristics oil. Zeolite adsorbent reduce value free fatty acids and peroxide numbers first stage is preparation then activation 15 30% w/w zeol...
