2. Self-healing concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_concrete

   Autogenous self-healing crack. Self-healing concrete is characterized as the capability of concrete to fix its cracks on its own autogenously or autonomously. It not only seals the cracks but also partially or entirely recovers the mechanical properties of the structural elements. This kind of concrete is also known as self-repairing concrete.

3. Concrete sealer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_sealer

   Concrete sealers are applied to concrete to protect it from surface damage, corrosion, and staining. They either block the pores in the concrete to reduce absorption of water and salts or form an impermeable layer which prevents such materials from passing.

4. Self-healing material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_material

   Upon cracking, these particles are exposed to oxygen, and in the presence of heat, they react to form new materials which fill the crack gap under volume expansion. [123] This concept has been proven using SiC to heal cracks in an Alumina matrix, [ 124 ] and further studies have investigated the high temperature strength, [ 125 ] and the static ...

5. Living building material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Living_building_material

   The structural properties of this material are similar to those of Portland cement-based mortars: it has an elastic modulus of 293.9 MPa, and a tensile strength of 3.6 MPa (the minimum required value for Portland-cement based concrete is approximately 3.5 MPa); [2] however it has a fracture energy of 170 N, which is much less than most standard ...

6. Controlled low strength material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controlled_low_strength...

   Since flowable fill is normally a comparatively low-strength material, there are no strict quality requirements for fly ash used in flowable fill or controlled low strength material mixtures. Fly ash is well suited for use in flowable fill mixtures. Its fine particle sizing (nonplastic silt) and spherical particle shape enhances mix flowability.

7. Filler (materials) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(materials)

   Filler materials are particles added to resin or binders (plastics, composites, concrete) that can improve specific properties, make the product cheaper, or a mixture of both. [1] The two largest segments for filler material use is elastomers and plastics . [ 2 ]
