    Abstract: There is provided a two part hardenable composition comprising a powder first part and a liquid second part. The parts are operable to form a glass ionomer cement which hardens to a solid mass upon mixing of the parts together. The composition comprises an inorganic glass and/or salt in the powder first part, an aqueous carrier in the liquid second part and an acid-functional polymer in the powder first part and/or the liquid second part. The composition also comprises an at least partially water-miscible additive in the first and/or second parts. The additive is operable to extend the working time of the glass ionomer cement upon mixing of the first and or second parts. The composition is operable to form a glass ionomer cement which, once hardened to a solid mass, has a plane strain fracture toughness of at least 0.7 MPa·m1/2 as measured at 24 hours from mixing. Also provided is a method of producing a glass ionomer cement.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an activated pozzolan composition includes: (i) grinding a natural pozzolan, alone or with another mineral component that is not cement clinker, to form a finely ground pozzolan component having a first d90 in a range of about 10 μm to about 45 μm and a first d10 less than about 5 μm; and (ii) blending, without intergrinding, the finely ground pozzolan component with a coarse particulate mineral component comprised of coarse mineral particles not interground with the fine interground particulate component, the coarse particulate component having a second d90 greater than the first d90 and a second d10 greater than the first d10. The natural pozzolan can be one or more of natural pozzolanic deposits, volcanic ash, metakaolin, shale dust, calcined clay, trass, and pumice.

    Abstract: Bioinspired chemical additives, coating, and chemical solution useful for enhancing the strength of self-healing hydraulic-cement concrete, comprising of micro/nano/textured dual phobic dot domains, hydrogel polymer, water, mineral oil, and surfactants assembled into micelle emulsion, mixed with cement, water, sand, and aggregates by weight percentage at a mix ratio of from 0.00001/99.9999 to 10.0/90, of which the ratio of water to cement from 0.10 to 0.80 (W/C), the volume fraction of cement for total volume of concrete from 5 to 50%, sand 40% to 90%, and aggregate 40% to 90%, a replacement of cement with cementitious materials from 0.01% to 75%, having an early age of compressive strength over more than 4000 (PSI) within 24 hour, ultimate compressive strength >7500 (PSI) after exposed over one year, gaining a self-healing efficiency over 80(%), contributed to dispersive, hydrogen, ionic chelating interactions, and activated with self-assembling thiol/disulfide plant-based protein fibril's crosslinking bonds.
