Engineers are turning to a chemistry that ancient Romans perfected two millennia ago to build thermal batteries capable of storing cheap, abundant heat for industrial use. By exploiting the reversible ...

Researchers have created a material using CO2 and seawater that stores carbon and could revolutionize cement and construction ...

The concrete world that surrounds us owes its shape and durability to chemical reactions that start when ordinary Portland cement is mixed with water. Now, MIT scientists have demonstrated a way to ...

When it comes to construction, concrete is king, but making it releases a lot of CO 2 —around 8% of global emissions. Demand for lower carbon emissions is creating a market for concrete with a smaller ...

Engineers at Princeton University have developed a cement composite inspired by the inner lining of oyster and abalone shells that, in laboratory tests on hardened cement paste specimens, proved about ...

A team of scientists from Penn State has developed a new, flexible cement made from nanomaterials that could help solve the problem of natural gas well leaks. Leaks from natural gas wells are a threat ...

New efforts to make more eco-friendly concrete involve the addition of graphene, according to a study recently published from Rice University in the journal Carbon. Chemist James Tour, who worked on ...

MASFIELD, Conn. — The University of Connecticut is now using cutting edge concrete blocks from CarbonBuilt in construction projects at its field house and new school of nursing building. These blocks ...
