In recent years, the use of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) has become a major concern when promoting sustainable development in construction. However, the design of concrete mixes and the prediction of their compressive strength becomes difficult...
The present article presents the results of physical and chemical studies of opoka. In particular, the opoka was subjected to chemical analysis, X-ray phase, differential thermal analysis, scanning microscopy, and X-ray energy dispersive elemental mi...
The construction sector’s reliance on traditional cement significantly contributes to CO2 emissions, underscoring the urgent need for sustainable alternatives. This study investigates fine (0–4 mm), rounded, uncoated, porous-surfaced ligh...
TiO2 is widely utilized as an excellent photocatalyst in energy production. However, its rapid electron and hole recombination confers poor photocatalytic activity. Cocatalysts are essential for increasing photocatalytic efficacy by introducing impro...
This study focuses on the development of an insulation biocomposite using Doum palm (Chamaerops humilis) fibers reinforced with a natural binder based on citric acid and glycerol. The main objective is to optimize the thermal conductivity and mechani...
The mechanical properties of High-Performance Self-Compacting Concrete (HPSCC) are strongly influenced by its pore structure, but the impact of varying water–binder ratios (W/C) on this relationship remains unclear. To address this, the present...
The development and analysis of the properties of a new material based on UV-curable acrylate monomers with silicon-containing hydroxyapatite and zinc oxide nanoparticles as an antibacterial component and gelatin was carried out. Using this material...
This research studied the recycling of borosilicate glass wastes from damaged laboratory glassware. The luminescent glasses were prepared by doping glass waste powder with rare earth ions, namely, dysprosium ions (Dy3+) and samarium ions (Sm3+), as w...
This research aimed to provide valuable insights for future studies and enhance manufacturing processes by investigating the effect of incorporating fibers into 3D printing to improve the mechanical properties of fabricated components. The experiment...
New materials are actively being developed for use in various fields of electronics, as they can significantly improve the performance of electronic devices and prevent adverse effects. Such materials include nanocomposites, which include nanoparticl...
