The influence of batched water exposed to a constant magnetic field (B = 1 T) on the properties of concrete was investigated. Fillers such as coal fly ash (CFA), phosphogypsum (PB) and native potato starch dispersed in epoxy resin [EP(S)], were used to obtain concrete based on Portland cement (PC). The magnetized batched water had a positive effect on the properties of concrete, reducing water absorption and increasing flexural and compressive strengths. The obtained concrete is a new promising building material that can be used to manufacture e.g. building foundations, flush-mounted installations and insulation layers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
