The invention relates to a process for hydrophobization of concrete or mortar using an alkylketene dimer dispersion and to the concrete or mortar obtainable by the process of the invention. The process allows to achieve effective mass and surface hydrophobization of concrete.

The present invention relates to a composition for manufacturing methylene malonate cementitious hybrid systems. Particularly, the invention relates to a composition comprising at least one methylene malonate monomer (A), at least one methylene malonate polymer (B), at least one acidic stabilizer (C), and cement (D), to the preparation thereof, and to the use of the composition in construction, particularly as a surface protection material, a structural consolidation material or as a material used in underground constructions.

Composite cellulosic products and processes for making same. In some embodiments, the composite cellulosic product can include a plurality of cellulosic substrates and an at least partially cured binder. Prior to curing, the binder can include a mixture formed by combining magnesium oxide, water, and magnesium chloride. A weight ratio of the magnesium oxide to the magnesium chloride in the binder can be at least 2.2:1 to 8.5:1.
