An environmentally friendly composition of matter comprising a limestone and fiberglass based waste material used to substitute out a portion of natural aggregate with said waste material so as to preserve natural resources, protect the environment and prevent depletion of landfill capacity and reuse unusable waste products into environmentally useful products.

The present invention relates to methods for the production of fresh cured fiber cement products. More particularly, the present invention provides methods for the production of fresh fiber cement products comprising cured fiber cement waste material, at least comprising the steps of: (a) Providing a cured fiber cement waste powder by comminuting cured fiber cement waste material; (b) Providing an aqueous fiber cement slurry comprising water, cementitious binder, natural or synthetic fibers and said cured fiber cement waste powder; (c) Forming a green fiber cement sheet from said aqueous fiber cement slurry; and (d) Autoclave-curing said green fiber cement sheet thereby providing a fresh fiber cement product.

A glass/quartz composite structure comprises quartz grit (and/or nan-glass crystals), quartz powder and glass grit wherein the glass grit is in an amount greater than any other single material by weight of the composite structure (e.g. a combined weight of the quartz grit, quartz powder, glass grit, resin, and coupling agent). Natural stone components, which may include the quartz grit and quartz powder, may be in an amount greater than 30% by weight of the composite structure. The structure may be formed into a 1.2-1.5 cm thick slab for countertops using standard cabinet perimeter support. The slab may be made by mixing the quartz grit, quartz powder, glass grit, and binding resin, pouring the mixture in a mold, and compacting the mixture in the mold. Specific natural mineral components, decorative chips, and/or wet mixture pieces may be added to the composite structure to provide aesthetics of specific natural stones.

Pavement aging can be reduced by applying to an asphalt-containing pavement a topcoat layer or a surface treatment containing asphalt binder with sterols.

Disclosed in the present invention is a building with integral thermal insulation and heat shielding, in the technical field of construction engineering. The problem to be solved is to provide a building with integral thermal insulation and heat shielding, and the solution employed is as follows: a building with integral thermal insulation and heat shielding, which at least uses one of an inorganic thermal insulation structural layer and an inorganic thermal insulation layer; the inorganic thermal insulation structural layer is formed of one of, or a combination of both of, inorganic, thermally-insulating, heat-shielding and load-bearing concrete and inorganic, thermally-insulating, load-bearing building blocks; the inorganic, thermally-insulating, heat-shielding and load-bearing concrete has the following components in weight proportions: concrete composite light aggregate blending material: cement:sand:stone:ceramsite:fly ash:water:concrete admixture=(6−225):(200-800):(300-700):(500-1600):(150-650):(10-600):(80-400):(0.1-200). The present invention can be widely applied to the technical field of construction.
