A hydraulic composition for the construction of pavements, and in particular for the repair of pavements, includes a hydraulic binder including a cement, 0.18% to 0.35% of a superplasticiser, where the percentage is expressed by dry weight compared to the cement, and where the superplasticiser includes a branched polymer including at least one pendant chain, with a terminal function of the phosphonate or phosphate type, and 0.25% to 2% of a setting accelerator, where the percentage is expressed by dry weight compared to the cement, where the setting accelerator includes a calcium salt, where the hydraulic composition has a Water/Cement ratio higher than 0.38 and strictly less than 0.45.

The invention relates to mortar or concrete produced with a hydraulic binder, comprising aggregates from cinders from the bottom of municipal waste incinerators and/or from slurry from wastewater treatment plants, or other natural or artificial aggregates, of different particle sizes depending of the use thereof as mortar or concrete, and a binder consisting of: glass and/or other pozzolans; pure Portland clinker with gypsum or plaster of Paris, or the resulting cements following the grinding thereof; and/or optionally lime, depending on the quantity of glass and/or pozzolans; all of the materials forming the base of the binder being ground and mixed together until a binder is obtained, together with the aggregates, with cementing mineral neoformations and a strong pozzolanic character.

This geopolymer molding production method comprises: a mixing step (S1) for mixing a first material containing aluminum and silicon with a hydrate of an alkali stimulant containing a hydrate of an alkaline hydroxide and/or a hydrate of an alkaline silicate; a compaction step (S2) for compacting the mixture obtained in the mixing step (S1) into a compacted mixture; and a curing step (S3) for curing the compacted mixture.

Cementing compositions containing a hydraulic cement, halloysite nanoparticles, and silica flour. The cementing compositions may optionally include other additives such as a friction reducer, a defoamer, and a fluid loss additive. Cement samples made therefrom and methods of producing such cement samples are also specified. The addition of halloysite nanoparticles and silica flour provides enhanced mechanical strength (e.g. compressive strength, flexural strength) and improved durability (e.g. resistance to CO.sub.2 and salinity) to the cement, making them suitable cementing material for oil and gas wells.

A process for preparing powdered dispersants comprising at least 90% by weight of at least one copolymer CP of the polycarboxylate ether type. The powdered dispersants can be easily dispersed in water. The invention also relates to the use of such powdered dispersants in mineral binder compositions, in particular dry mortars, concrete or gypsum formulations.

Corrosion mitigating cement compositions and methods for their preparation are provided. The cement compositions are derived from self-cementing pozzolans and chemical accelerators, retarders, mechanical strength modifiers and corrosion inhibitors. The corrosion inhibitors include boron compounds such as boric acid. Concretes prepared using the cement compositions possess low conductivity and a conductivity which further decreases with aging.
