The invention relates to a cementitious multi-component mortar system comprising finely ground Portland cement clinker with a grinding fineness in the range of from 6000 to 12000 cm.sup.2 g, for use as an inorganic chemical fastening system for anchoring elements in mineral substrates.

A multi-component inorganic capsule anchoring system can be used for chemical fastening of anchors, bolts, screw anchors, screw bolts, and post-installed reinforcing bars in mineral substrates. The multi-component inorganic capsule anchoring system contains a curable powdery ground-granulated blast-furnace slag-based component A, and an initiator component B in aqueous-phase for initiating the curing process. The powdery ground-granulated blast-furnace slag-based component A contains further silica dust. The component B contains an alkali- or alkaline earth-hydroxide, alkali- or alkaline earth-carbonate, or alkali-or alkaline earth-sulfate component.

Nontoxic Near infra-red Reflecting (NIR) inorganic pigments, characteristically blue and well suited for the coloration of a wide variety of substrates, for example, plastics and concrete building roofing material, etc., comprise mixed metal silicate having the general formula: La.sub.xSr.sub.1-xCu.sub.1-yLi.sub.ySi.sub.4O.sub.10, where x is equal to 0 to 0.5 and y is equal to 0 to 0.5. These silicates with tetragonal crystal structure are prepared by calcination method in air atmosphere.

The presently disclosed and/or claimed inventive concept(s) relates generally to a stone paint formulation. More particularly, the presently disclosed and/or claimed inventive concept(s) relates to a stone paint comprising a composition A and a composition B. The composition A comprises a latex emulsion, a rheology modifier, a coalescing agent, a biocide, a neutralizing agent and a solvent. The composition B comprises a sand. Additionally, the presently disclosed and/or claimed inventive concept(s) relates to a method of making the stone paint formulation by using the rheology modifier. The stone paint of the presently disclosed and/or claimed inventive concept(s) has enhanced resistance to water-whitening.

Reinforcing filaments or fibers, such as aromatic polyamide (aramid) fibers, can be reliably measured and consistently mixed into asphalt cement concrete by soaking the fibers in a wetting agent, then severing them to a desired length, and mixing the segments with other ACC ingredients. The wetting agent holds the fibers together loosely, so they can be distributed more uniformly throughout the ACC without clumping. The wetting agent soaks into the ACC mixture and/or evaporates, leaving the reinforcing fibers behind.
