What is construction chemistry?
- Chemistry of inorganic and organic binders
portland, aluminate, magnesia, phosphate cement
CaSO4-binders: anhydrite, α-, β-hemihydrate
epoxy resins, polyurethanes, silicones, polysulfides, latex dispersions
- Functional molecules
superplastizisers, fluid loss additives, retarders, accelerators,
proofing agents, shrinkage reducers, foamers, air-entraining agents
- Materials properties of construction materials
Construction materials properties, structure, damaging reactions,
intelligent surfaces: photocatalysis, spectral sensitive
coatings, self-cleaning surfaces
