Funded Activity Summary

Controlled Ca release in biowaste polymer binder for green infrastructure. With the advances in biopolymer and green chemistry, Ca-activated zeolite-based binder materials have become possible for eco-friendly infrastructure with high performance, low carbon footprint and low energy consumption. In this project, next generation binder materials will be designed and fabricated to cater for stringent environmental requirements for civil infrastructure. In collaboration with world leading experts, the newly developed binder will be tested in various engineering scenarios to understand nanoscience-based working mechanisms. It is expected that the novel binder will potentially reduce the use of conventional cement/concrete materials, contribute to a circular economy and help to mitigate climate change.
