In this study, a quantitative review was performed on the mechanical performance, permeation resistance of concrete, and durability of surface-modified coarse aggregates (SMCA) produced using low-quality recycled coarse aggregates, the surface of which was modified using a fine inorganic powder.
The electrochemically active surface area (ESA), measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV), and the long-time durability of the surface area of Pt/CNT prepared by CVD are higher than those of the commercial catalyst.
To improve the smoothness and to increase the durability of pavement surface with porous asphalt mixtures, a small particle porous asphalt mixture modified with epoxy resin is proposed.
Hence, both the protective effect and long-term durability of the surface treatment should be taken into account in service-life modelling.
It was of further interest to determine whether the proximity of the bonding sites within an organofunctional silane had an effect on the durability of silane surface modification under aqueous conditions.
The role of water is important in this chemistry since the vast majority of silane surface treatments are carried out by a hydrolytic deposition process and, after deposition, water adsorption at the interface is an important factor in determining the durability of the surface modification.
The Tafel polarization technique was employed to further inspect the effectiveness and durability of superhydrophobic surfaces.
The durability of the surfaces was investigated by repeated dry rubber sliding friction tests.
The problem of stability and durability of superhydrophobic surfaces from both theoretical and practical points of view is emphasized.
The aim of this paper is to assess, by the results of suitable experimental tests, the durability performances of surface-applied concrete layers that incorporate a photocatalytic material such as titanium dioxide.
Thus, the long-term effect of hydrophobic surface still need to be improved, and durability of the hydrophobic surface should be the research and development priorities of ice-repelling pavement.
