The present invention provides structure protection sheets which can not only dramatically reduce a construction period to place protective layers on surfaces of structures such as concrete but also protect structures for a long time. The present invention relates to a structure protection sheet, including: a polymer cement layer on a side facing a structure; and a resin layer on the polymer cement layer, the structure protection sheet having a thickness distribution of not more than ±100 μm.

Disclosed is a moderator for moderating neutrons, including a substrate and a surface treatment layer or a dry inert gas layer or a vacuum layer coated on the surface of the substrate, wherein the substrate is prepared from a moderating material by a powder sintering device through a powder sintering process from powders or by compacting powders into a block, and the moderating material includes 40% to 100% by weight of aluminum fluoride; wherein the surface treatment layer is a hydrophobic material; and the surface treatment layer or the dry inert gas layer or the vacuum layer is used for isolating the substrate from the water in the environment in which the substrate is placed. The surface treated moderator can avoid the hygroscopic or deliquescence of the moderating material during use, improve the quality of the neutron source and prolong the service life.

A gypsum building material, characterised in that the gypsum building material comprises at least gypsum, H-siloxane and/or amorphous silicon dioxide and optionally further additives, wherein the H-siloxane is uniformly distributed in the gypsum building material and/or is applied to at least one surface of the gypsum building material, characterised in that the gypsum building material under the effect of temperatures of at least 80° C. has a longer expansion phase than a gypsum building material without H-siloxane and/or amorphous silicon dioxide, wherein the gypsum building material is otherwise of identical composition.

An exterior sheathing cementitious panel which prevents water penetration and air leakage is provided. Methods for manufacturing exterior sheathing cementitious panels with a highly efficient integrated air/water barrier membrane are provided as well.

A resin-impregnated boron nitride body includes a polymer-derived boron nitride and a resin. A process for manufacturing such a resin-impregnated boron nitride body includes: polymerizing a boron nitride molecular precursor into a preceramic polymer shaping the preceramic polymer to form an infusible polymer body; submitting the polymer body to a thermal treatment to obtain a boron nitride body; impregnating the boron nitride body with a resin; and curing the resin.

A curable composition comprises (A) a first siloxane oligomer being free from a siloxane unit represented by the following formula (I) and containing an alkoxy-group-containing siloxane unit, (B) a second siloxane oligomer containing a siloxane unit represented by the formula (I) and an alkoxy-group-containing siloxane unit, (C) a silicone oil having a kinetic viscosity at 25° C. of not less than 100 mm.sup.2/s, (D) at least one curing catalyst selected from the group consisting of a metal alkoxide, a metal chelate compound, and a metal carboxylate, and (E) a solvent containing an organic solvent having a vapor pressure at 20° C. of not less than 1 kPa.

A system and a method are provided for inhibiting pyrrhotite-caused damage to concrete structures. The system includes at least one concrete structure, a quantity of migratory corrosion-inhibiting solution, a quantity of concrete reinforcing solution, and a water sealing substance. The concrete structure can be any structure where the concrete aggregate contains pyrrhotite. The quantity of migratory corrosion-inhibiting solution is applied to the concrete structure to prevent further oxidation of pyrrhotite within the concrete structure. The quantity of concrete reinforcing solution is applied to the concrete structure to lower the porosity of the concrete structure and strengthen the overall integrity of the concrete structure. The water sealing substance is applied to the concrete structure to repel water from the concrete structure preventing any further chemical reactions with the pyrrhotite.
