The present application discloses a reinforced and toughened MGO substrate, a preparation method thereof and a composite board having the substrate. The reinforced and toughened MGO substrate includes a middle layer and fiber layers on upper and lower surfaces of the middle layer, wherein the fiber layers are glassfiber surface mats, and the middle layer is prepared from a forming agent, a lightweight filler, a modifier and water in parts by weight as follows: 34-45 parts of light burned magnesium oxide, 23-30 parts of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, 8-10 parts of granulated lignocellulose, 4-6 parts of xylem fiber, 0.5-2 parts of the modifier, and 18-26 parts of water; the modifier being obtained by mixing citric acid, anhydrous sodium sulfate, dihydrogen phosphate and phosphoric acid in a mass ratio of 10:3:1:6.

A composition of a cement additive material to improve durability of cementitious structures, was disclosed. The cement additive composition includes an admixture of one or more of divalent magnesium metal silicates with capacity to act as a latent hydraulic binder in said composition activated by a hydration process under aqueous conditions, and in particular the divalent metal silicate is magnesium-dominated silicate, preferably comprising mineral groups of olivines, orthopyroxenes, amphiboles, and serpentines or mixtures thereof. The composition also includes chloride ions or brine.

Examples of novel self-repairing cement-polymer composites and processes of making and using are detailed that address various problems in prior art cements. These matrices, compositions and materials that are more mechanically robust, thermally stable and chemically resistant and demonstrate better bonding to various structures and materials, than other self-healing cements known in the prior art. When in place under preselected conditions (the formulation of the slurry can be modified for optimal effectiveness under various conditions) the organic, cross linking and cement forming portions within the slurry form interconnecting chemical bonds and cures to form a self-repairing and self-re-adhering cement polymer composite matrix in the receiving location.

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.

Method of increasing stain resistance of a surface of a porous layer formed by a binder and filler particles. In the surface, the filler particles are spaced apart and particles of precipitated calcium carbonate having a particle size in the range of 30 to 60 nm are incorporated into the layer in a sufficient amount to fill pores between the filler particles of the surface.
