Devices and systems for collapsible engagement mechanisms are described herein. In some examples, one or more embodiments include a front panel, a first side panel connected to the front panel, a second side panel connected to the front panel, and a collapsible portion connected to at least one of the first side panel and the second side panel, where the collapsible portion is collapsible about a hinge.

Provided is a cover for asphalt including an asphalt emulsion and a method of paving asphalt using the same, and specifically, to a cover for asphalt, which may facilitate adhesion between an existing asphalt pavement layer and a new asphalt pavement layer and substitute for a tack coat. The cover for asphalt prevents an asphalt emulsion from being damaged by heavy vehicles or construction equipment moving for application of a new pavement layer, and allows omitting separate asphalt emulsion application and curing processes before application of the new asphalt layer.

The present invention primarily relates to the use of a mixture capable of biocementation as a means of preventing or reducing plant growth, preferably weed growth. The invention also relates to a method for preventing or reducing plant growth, preferably weed growth, on/in a substrate.

The invention relates to a preparation comprising at least one hydraulic binding agent and at least one cellulose ether selected from methylhydroxyethylhydroxypropylcellulose (MHEHPC) and the use thereof, in particular in building material systems.

This document relates to methods for preventing or inhibiting the formation of micro-cracks and fractures in the cement of an oil well using cement compositions that contain cross-linked polyrotaxane additives. The cement compositions containing the cross-linked polyrotaxane additives exhibit increased stiffness without suffering a decrease in compressive strength, as compared to the same cement without the cross-linked polyrotaxane additive.

The disclosure provides a ceiling tile including a curable coating composition including 10-50 vol. % inorganic binder, based on the total volume of solids in the dry coating composition, wherein the inorganic binder is an alkali metal silicate or an alkaline earth metal silicate and 50-90 vol. % inorganic filler, based on the total volume of solids in the coating composition, wherein the binder and the filler are not the same and the coating is substantially free of an organic polymeric binder. The ceiling tiles have a backing side and an opposing facing side, and a cured coating layer disposed on the backing side of the panel, the backing side being directed to a plenum above the fibrous panel in a suspended ceiling tile, the cured coating layer including the curable coating composition of the disclosure.
