The present application provides a composition containing a maleic anhydride copolymer, a polyaziridine crosslinker, optionally an additional crosslinking agent such as an amine crosslinker, and optionally a gel time control agent. Methods of using the composition to treat a subterranean formation are also provided.

A ceramic binder composition is disclosed as well as a method of making and using the same. Additionally, a ceramic coated separator used in, for example but without limitation, lithium ion batteries is disclosed.

The present invention relates to a binder composition comprising (i) a phospho-magnesium cement; (ii) a boron source; (iii) a lithium salt; and (iv) water and to its preparation method. The present invention also relates to the use of such a binder for confining wastes and notably nuclear wastes containing aluminum metal.

The formulation for making plasterboard with paper cover sheets comprises finely divided gypsum, a minor amount by weight of starch and, as crosslinking agent for the starch, a tri-functional reactive s-triazine having substituents at positions 2, 4 and 6 of the triazine ring which are reactive with the starch. A preferred crosslinking agent is 2,4,6-trichloro-s-triazine, which is preferably partially reacted with the starch before further reaction with the paper cover sheets for the plaster board.

The invention relates to a method (100) for selecting the composition of a construction material including an excavated clay soil, said construction material composition to include deflocculating agent and activating agent quantities adapted to the excavated clay soil, said method including a step of receiving (130) a measured value of at least one physicochemical property of an excavated clay soil, and a step of selecting (170) a deflocculating agent quantity and an activating agent quantity adapted to the excavated clay soil. In addition, the invention also relates to a method (200) for calibrating a calculation algorithm for determining the composition of a site construction material, to a construction material formed from an excavated clay soil, and to a system (400) for preparing a construction material including an excavated clay soil.

The present development corresponds to a concrete composition for 3D printing comprising cementitious agent, polydisperse matrix, fine materials, plasticizer, concrete accelerator, rheology controller, concrete retarder and optionally concrete shrinkage controllers and/or supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), wherein the cementitious agent has an addition between 0% and 10% and wherein the mixture between the cementitious, polydisperse matrix, fine materials, and SCMs has a Rosin-Rammler distribution parameter less than 1. The present development is also related to the use of the concrete composition for 3D printing of structural walls and other architectural elements with a mechanical strength greater than 30 MPa and a very high quality of the finished surface.
