Alkali Activated Materials
This is a State of the Art Report resulting from the work of RILEM Technical Committee 224-AAM in the period 2007-2013. The Report summarises research to date in the area of alkali-activated binders and concretes, with a particular focus on the following areas: binder design and characterisation, durability testing, commercialisation, standardisation, and providing a historical context for this rapidly-growing research field.
Mechanical Properties and Performance of Engineering Ceramics II, Volume 27, Issue 2
This volume contains over 70 papers on advanced research and development of processing, mechanical properties and mechanics of ceramics and composites from the proceedings of the 30th International Conference on Advanced Ceramics and Composites, January 22-27, 2006, in Cocoa Beach, Florida. The conference was organized and sponsored by The American Ceramic Society and The American Ceramic Society's Engineering Ceramics Division in conjunction with the Nuclear and Environmental Technology Division. It covers underlying fundamental links between microstructure and properties, and the ability to achieve desired multifunctional properties through innovative processing techniques.
Excellence in Concrete Construction through Innovation
The concrete industry has embraced innovation and ensured high levels of long-term performance and sustainability through creative applications in design and construction. As a construction material, the versatility of concrete and its intrinsic benefits mean it is still well placed to meet challenges of the construction industry. Indeed, concrete

Magnesia Cements
There is an urgent need for innovative, cost-effective, and sustainable approaches to reduce the tremendous environmental impact of conventional cement and cement-based technologies. Consuming a significantly lower quantity of natural resources than conventional cements, with the added ability to effectively sequestering carbon, magnesia cements offer great potential in this area. Magnesia Cements: From Formulation to Application explores the latest developments in this exciting area, reviewing the unique properties offered by these cements, including superior strength, fire resistance, and exceptional ability to bond to a wide range of aggregates, and highlighting their potential role in ma...
GEOPOLIMERI POLIMERI INORGANICI CHIMICAMENTE ATTIVATI Seconda Edizione
Il testo, in seconda edizione riveduta e ampliata, riassume lo stato dell'arte delle conoscenze sui geopolimeri, leganti idraulici e materiali ceramici di tipo alluminosilicatico a bassissimo contenuto di calcio. L'attivazione alcalina porta alla parziale dissoluzione di materie prime, sia naturali che scarti industriali, che danno origine a paste lavorabili e consolidabili a freddo. La buona stabilità termica e lebuone proprietà meccaniche, portano i geopolimeri a essere materiali interessanti per diverse applicazioni: matrici per refrattari ed antifiamma, materiali da costruzione e restauro, matrici per l'inertizzazione di rifiuti tossici e radioattivi ecc. Il basso impatto ambientale dovuto alle materie prime e al processo a freddo necessario per il loro ottenimento li rendono ecosostenibili. Il testo si rivolge sia ai tecnologi industriali dei materiali, sia ai ricercatori che lavorano nelle università e nei centri di ricerca, proponendo una aggiornata numerosità di applicazioni.
