Cement is a carbon monster — but scientists are taking a cue from seashells to make it tougher, safer, and greener.

microscopic crystals develop, grow and interlock, binding the aggregate together and forming a rock-hard mass. It’s tempting ...

Scientists have gathered concrete evidence that time can be altered, proving that the concept of time travel exists—at least on a microscopic scale. Two researchers from Darmstadt University in ...

leading to better bonding at microscopic scale and giving the finished product improved strength, durability and corrosion resistance. Crucially, Concretene can be used just like standard concrete, ...

We didn’t notice [Nikita]’s post about building a concrete 3D printer, a few months ago, but the idea seems sound: build a basic CNC XY axis and then add a mortar pump and hose to deposit ...
