Provided are compositions and methods thereof that may include Portland cement, a melamine, and alumina. The compositions may further include silicon dioxide, supplementary cementitious material, polymer resin(s), hydrophobizers, preservatives, film-forming assistants, dispersants, foam stabilizers, defoamers, pigments, dyes, water, or combinations thereof. Typically, the compositions are coatings that may be applied to restore and preserve asphalt and cement road surfaces and pavements.

A method of forming a structure includes a) excavating a material; b) homogenizing the material; c) ensuring aluminosilicate levels in the material; d) increasing alkaline levels of the material; e) foaming the material; and f) injecting the material onto a surface, wherein the material forms into a foam-like structure when injected.

A structure for protecting a substrate. The structure comprises an inner tie coat layer which can bond to the substrate, a geopolymer foam layer, and an outer protective layer. The geopolymer foam layer is the reaction product of a mixture comprising an aluminosilicate source, an alkali activator, reinforcing fibres, and a plurality of microparticles.

Inorganic coatings that may be used to coat and protect concrete are disclosed. The protective inorganic coatings include a liquid composition portion comprising water, an alkali metal oxide component and a silicate-containing component. The coatings also include a powder composition portion comprising microspheres, metal oxide powder and optional microfibers. When applied to concrete, the coatings provide chemical and physical protection.

The present invention pertains to a phosphate cement composition and process for making such composition. More particularly, it pertains to a phosphate cement coating and process for making the coating for application to a given substrate.

This disclosure relates to silicon modified vinyl acetate ethylene copolymers and to emulsions and articles of manufacture based on the same.

The present invention relates to a mixture comprising at least one compound comprising an -hydroxy-carboxylic unit, -hydroxy-sulfonic acid unit or -carbonyl-carboxylic unit and at least one water-soluble organic carbonate. The mixture is useful as a hydration control agent in construction chemical compositions comprising an inorganic binder.

What are described are a process for producing an insulating product for the construction materials industry or an insulating material as intermediate for production of such a product, and a corresponding insulating material/insulating product. Also described are the use of a matrix encapsulation method for production of composite particles in the production of an insulating product for the construction materials industry or of an insulating material as intermediate for production of such a product, and the corresponding use of the composite particles producible by means of a matrix encapsulation method

Some embodiments relate to a method for producing a rubber-containing asphalt composition. The method for producing the rubber-containing asphalt composition comprises obtaining a rubber component; obtaining an unoxidized asphalt; mixing the rubber component and the unoxidized asphalt to obtain an unoxidized asphalt composition; oxidizing the unoxidized asphalt composition to obtain an oxidized asphalt composition; and forming a roofing shingle from the oxidized asphalt composition.

Disclosed are a polymer cement-granite composite tomb box and a preparation method thereof. The tomb box has a layered structure or an upper-lower composite structure, where the layered structure is composed of one or two layers of granite slabs and one layer of the polymer cement, and an upper portion of the upper-lower composite structure is made of granite slabs, and an lower portion of the upper-lower composite structure is made of the polymer cement or a combination of the polymer cement and the granite slabs.
