2. 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.

3. Self-healing concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_concrete

   On the other hand, concrete may be altered to provide self-healing capabilities for cracks. There are many solutions for improving autogenous healing by adding the admixtures, such as mineral additions, crystalline admixtures, and superabsorbent polymers. [6] Further, concrete can be modified to built-in autonomous self-healing techniques.

4. 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 ]

5. Concrete degradation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_degradation

   The curing of concrete when it continues to harden after its initial setting and progressively develops its mechanical strength is a critical phase to avoid unwanted cracks in concrete. Depending on the temperature (summer or winter conditions) and thus on the cement hydration kinetics controlling the setting and hardening rate of concrete ...

6. Concrete sealer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_sealer

   In past decades attempts to protect concrete have included sealers ranging from wax to linseed oil. Today, high quality concrete sealers can block up to 99% of surface moisture. There are two main sealer categories: topical sealers (coatings) and penetrating sealers (reactive).

7. Spackling paste - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spackling_paste

   Spackling paste or spackle is a putty used to fill holes, small cracks, and other minor surface defects in wood, drywall, and plaster. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Typically, spackling is composed of gypsum plaster from hydrated calcium sulfate and glue .
