To provide a blast furnace slag-type paint using a liquid inorganic material composed of a fluid suspension.

A blast furnace slag-type two-part paint in which a stabilized aqueous suspension containing the following blast furnace slags is contained as the main agent, an alkaline liquid having dissolved therein sodium silicate, sodium carbonate, or potassium carbonate that induces a hydraulic reaction of the suspension serves as the hydraulic reaction inducer, and the main agent and the hydraulic reaction inducer are separately packaged.

<Components of the main agent> (A) 0.5 to 42% by weight of a high-blast-furnace-slag-content blast furnace slag having a blast furnace slag content of 60% or more with respect to the total weight of the blast furnace slag; (B) 0.1 to 20% by weight of a blocking agent containing a phosphorus-containing compound; (C) 0.3 to 5%, preferably 0.3 to 2.5% of a blocking agent differing from a phosphorus-containing compound; (D) water retention agent; others.

Provided herein are compositions, methods, and systems comprising vaterite and magnesium oxide.

The present disclosure provides compositions and methods of manufacture of a composite material. In an aspect, the composite material may comprise a cellulosic material and a binder material. In some cases, at least a portion of the cellulosic material may be delignified. In some cases, at least a portion of crystal structure of the cellulosic material may be maintained in the composite material. In some cases, the cellulosic material may comprise a plurality of pores. In some cases, the binder may comprise lime comprising calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide. In some cases, the binder may further comprise silicate.

The present invention provides an antimicrobial ceramic tile and manufacturing method thereof. A manufacturing method of an antimicrobial ceramic tile comprises: grinding soils into slurries; drying the slurries into powders by hot air; pressing the powders into a green body through a molding machine; dotting or spraying or showering a glaze slurry on the surface of the green body to form an engobe; dotting the glaze slurry on the engobe to form a ground glaze; mixing a surface glaze and an antimicrobial material into an antimicrobial glaze in a weight ratio of 100:5˜10; grinding water and the antimicrobial glaze into the antimicrobial glaze in a weight ratio of 5˜6:4˜5; and dotting antimicrobial glaze on the ground glaze; finally, rapidly firing the ceramic tile and the antimicrobial glaze into an antimicrobial ceramic tile.
