This study investigates the utilization of slag and fly ash (FA) as alternative cementitious binder. Combination of 60% slag and 40% FA was used as new binder. In addition, for activation of slag and FA, sodium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide was used as a chemical activator by 5% weight of the binder, separately. Water to binder and sand to binder ratios was kept 0.55 and 3 in mortar preparati...

Polymer concrete (PC) is a composite material in which the binder consists entirely of a synthetic organic polymer. It is variously known as synthetic resin concrete, plastic resin concrete or simply resin concrete. Because the use of a polymer instead of Portland cement represents a substantial increase in cost, polymers should be used only in applications in which the higher cost can be justi...

forms of radioactivity is apparent when the corticosteroid binder is purified to homogeneity by a series of column Chromatographie fractionation procedures. The binder for 3-methylcholanthrene also has a molecular weight identical to that of the corticosteroid binder as determined by calibration on Sephadex G-75 columns and by sedimentation velocity experiments in the analytical ultracentrifuge...

The ability to engineer the feel and functional requirements in lightand medium-weight goods without contributing to environmental pollution makes the thennal bonding process an interesting technology of nonwoven production. The manufacturing conditions, processing pardmeters, and the characteristics of binder fibres have a large bearing on the properties of nonwoven products. Higher calender r...

The fundamental processes in shock-induced instabilities of materials remain obscure, particularly for detonation of energetic materials. We simulated these processes at the atomic scale on a realistic model of a polymer-bonded explosive (3,695,375 atoms/cell) and observed that a hot spot forms at the nonuniform interface, arising from shear relaxation that results in shear along the interface ...

Non-annealed graphene paper, prepared via reduction of prefabricated graphene oxide paper with hydrazine hydrate, was employed as the sole component of a binder-free lithium-ion battery anode, circumventing the polymer binders and other additives required for the fabrication of conventional electrodes. The binder-free anode fabricated from this non-annealed paper possessed excellent cyclability...
