The high-whiteness MGO substrate includes a surface layer and a substrate, wherein the substrate is prepared from a forming agent, a lightweight filler, a modifier and water in parts by mass as follows: 40-49 parts of light burned magnesium oxide powder, 18-25 parts of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, 16-25 parts of a polyvinyl alcohol solution, 16-20 parts of a plant powder, and 0.5-2 parts of a modifier; the modifier being obtained by mixing citric acid, phosphoric acid, and sodium sulfate in a mass ratio of 10:3:6.

The invention discloses an artificial nacre material with layered structure and preparation method thereof. The preparation method includes the following steps: uniformly mixing a carbonated cementitious material and water at a water-solid ratio of 0.3 to 1.2 to obtain a carbonated cementitious material suspension; treating the carbonated cementitious material suspension by a freeze-casting process to obtain a carbonated cementitious material coagulation with layered structure; treating the carbonated cementitious material coagulation with the layered structure by a freeze-drying process to obtain a carbonated cementitious material with layered structure; treating the carbonated cementitious material with layered structure by a carbonization process to obtain an artificial nacre material with layered structure. The obtained artificial nacre material with layered structure has higher fracture toughness and durability, and the preparation method has the advantages of low energy consumption, carbon dioxide fixation and environmental friendliness.

An aerospace mirror having a reaction bonded (RB) silicon carbide (SiC) mirror substrate, and a SiC cladding on the RB SiC mirror substrate forming an optical surface on a front side of the aerospace mirror. A method for manufacturing an aerospace mirror comprising obtaining a green mirror preform comprising porous carbon, silicon carbide (SiC), or both, the green mirror preform defining a front side of the aerospace mirror and a back side of the aerospace mirror opposite the front side; removing material from the green mirror preform to form support ribs on the back side; infiltrating the green mirror preform with silicon to create a reaction bonded (RB) SiC mirror substrate from the green mirror preform; forming a mounting interface surface on the back side of the aerospace mirror from the RB SiC mirror substrate, and forming a reflector surface of the RB SiC mirror substrate on the front side of the aerospace mirror. Additionally, the method can comprise cladding the reflector surface of the RB SiC mirror substrate with SiC to form an optical surface of the aerospace mirror.

An artificial stone and a curable composition for manufacturing the artificial stone are provided. The curable composition is capable of manufacturing an artificial stone that has excellent optical properties, is free to show color and the like, has excellent physical properties such as scratch resistance, and also has remarkable light resistance. The curable composition has formability and physical properties that are suitable for being formed into artificial stone.

An asphalt-cement concrete (“ACC”) interlayer formed of a plant-mix material reinforced with aramid fibers, deposited at a thickness of at least one inch (1″) over a Portland-cement concrete (“PCC”) or ACC base, can extend the service life of a hot-mix asphalt (“HMA”) surface layer installed over the interlayer by retarding or preventing “reflected” cracks—cracks in the surface layer that correspond to cracks, damage and irregularities in the PCC or ACC base. When the surface layer's useable life has expired, it can be removed and replaced, and the interlayer can continue to protect the new surface layer.

Materials that seamlessly transition from opaque to transparent or translucent, such as advanced geopolymer-based ceramics to glass structures, which can be directly and seamlessly bonded without the use of an intermediate adhesive or use of a frame are disclosed. That is, a GP-based ceramic to glass structure can be bonded directly and seamlessly and without any mechanical joints, connective tissue or adhesives such as caulking or epoxy. Such ceramic to glass materials can be prepared by sintering an engineered geopolymer with glass to form the geopolymer-based advanced ceramic-glass structure in which the interface is visually abruptly or in which the material is a graded composition with a controlled transition from one material to the other.

The present invention relates to a lightweight composite material having a binder and at least one first and at least one second filler, the first filler having a density of >2 kg/l and a Mohs hardness of >4 and the second filler having a bulk density of <2.5 kg/l. The concentration of the first filler in the composite material decreases starting from a first surface of the composite material in the direction of an opposite second surface of the composite material. In addition, the invention relates to a method for producing a composite material. This method includes the steps of providing a first filler which has a density of >2 kg/l and a Mohs hardness of >4, and providing a second filler which differs from the first filler and has a bulk density of <2.5 kg/l, and setting a concentration of the first filler in the resin that decreases in the vertical direction from a base surface of the casting mould by utilising the different mobilities of the filler particles in the resin.
