Technical fields of building external wall decoration and material manufacturing, providing a mildewproof and antirot high-strength cement particle board and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method includes: (1) sequentially carbonizing and water-washing a shaving, and mixing the obtained carbonized shaving with a cement gelling agent, a curing agent aqueous solution and water to obtain a mixture; (2) molding the mixture to obtain a pre-molded material; and (3) sequentially curing and drying the pre-molded material to obtain the mildewproof and antirot high-strength cement particle board. Compared to ordinary cement particle board, which is not subjected to carbonization treatment and water-washing, the cement particle board of the present invention can effectively avoid mildew and rot, and can significantly improve the mechanical strength and durability thereof, helping to extend the service life of the cement particle board.

The present invention discloses an artificial stone slab, wherein the raw materials are mixed, pressed, and solidified, and the raw material comprises a main material and an auxiliary material. The main material, according to the total weight ratio of raw materials, comprises from about 20% to about 85% of particles containing hydroxide or metal oxide, from about 0% to about 50% of natural quartz, and from about 5% to about 25% of resin. The auxiliary material comprises a coupling agent and a curing agent, wherein the weight ratio of the coupling agent to the resin is from about 0.6:100 to about 2:100, and the weight ratio of the curing agent to the resin is from about 0.8:100 to about 1.2:100. The present invention also provides methods for manufacturing the aforesaid artificial stone slab. The present invention replaces natural quartz particles with particles containing hydroxide or metal oxide and ensures that the performance of the slab is up to standard, that the quality is more stable and easier to control, the decorative results are better, and finally, the mining of natural quartz is reduced by 10 times, achieving the objectives of greater environmental protection and lower costs. The resulting slab provides stable performance with good decorative results and thus saves resources and is conducive to environmental protection.

A composite cementitious feedstock includes mineral rock agglutinates, super absorbent polymer (SAP) particles, cement particles, and a binder. Each of the agglutinates has irregular surface regions and cavities originating at the irregular surface regions. At least a portion of the SAP particles and cement particles are disposed on the irregular surface regions and in the cavities. The binder coheres the agglutinates, SAP particles, and cement particles.

A method is provided for producing a microfiber-reinforced high-strength concrete, comprising a cement matrix with a microfiber addition. The fiber elements have a shape-memory alloy. The method has at least the following steps: training a fiber shape of the fiber elements at a temperature above a transition temperature, wherein the fiber shape allows the fiber elements to latch; cooling the trained fiber elements; plastically deforming the fiber elements from the trained fiber shape into an intermediate form by means of which the fiber elements are prevented from latching; introducing the fiber elements into the cement matrix in order to form a fresh concrete; and casting the fresh concrete and heating the fresh concrete to the transition temperature such that the fiber elements reform into the fiber shape, thereby latching the fiber elements. The invention additionally relates to a microfiber-reinforced concrete which is produced using such a method.
